Episode 90: Thinking About a Wine Trip? What to Know About Wine Educate's Vineyard Travel

In this episode, we continue our New Year goal-setting series by talking about one of the most impactful goals a wine student or enthusiast can set: visiting a vineyard.

You do not need to plan a two-week international trip to learn from a vineyard visit. A day trip, weekend drive, or nearby winery can bring wine concepts to life in a way that books and classrooms cannot. Even a single visit can create lasting "aha" moments around climate, viticulture, and winemaking decisions.

I also share details about Wine Educate's trips to Château Camplazens, my family's vineyard in the south of France, and walk through two experiences in particular:

WSET Level 2 Award in Wines – South of France, which combines classroom instruction with vineyard learning, tastings, and regional exploration.
Languedoc Food & Wine Experience, designed for all levels, focusing on regional wines, local food producers, and cultural discovery rather than formal certification.

I answer common questions about these trips, including exam timing, flexibility for travel companions, and how to get to Château Camplazens by train from Paris or Barcelona.

If vineyard travel has ever felt out of reach, this episode is meant to show you that it may be more accessible than you think.

If you have questions about any of the trips, email me directly. It's me on the other end, and I'm always happy to help.

Next week, we wrap up our 2026 planning series by talking about online wine classes and how they work. In January, we'll begin a new Sparkling Wine series.

If you find the podcast helpful, please consider sharing it with a fellow wine student or enthusiast.
