March 26: Macon & Beaujolais Wine Region
This morning we went on a wine tour of the Beaujolais region. After about a thirty minute bus ride we arrived at the winery where we were introduced to the vineyards and the initial process was explained. We went into the fermenting area to see the vats, then down into the cellar - through a long tunnel - and arrived in the wine cellar with the gigantic casks. Here we sample two types of red wine and one of white. We also stopped at the lone windmill remaining in the area which is on the label of the most expensive and "best" wine of the area.
