Trends

If you and your future spouse love a great glass of wine, consider planning your honeymoon to a destination filled with wineries. These are some of our favorites.

 

Bordeaux, France 

While Paris may be the more traditionally popular honeymoon destination in France, Bordeaux is perfect for wine lovers. Besides its outstanding wines, the region is home to many museums and mansions to tour.

 

Douro Valley, Portugal 

Located near Porto, the Douro Valley marks the region where the Douro River flows into the sea. The area is becoming increasingly popular for its wine, including port. Choose from luxury hotels like the Six Senses Douro Valley (https://www.sixsenses.com/resorts/douro-valley/destination) or opt for a more intimate bed and breakfast.

 

Napa and Sonoma Counties

The California counties are among the most popular wine destinations in the United States. Besides an abundance of wineries, the destinations offer plenty of outdoor activities and covetable dining options. SingleThread (https://www.singlethreadfarms.com) in Sonoma and The French Laundry (https://www.thomaskeller.com/tfl) in Napa are standouts.

 

Stellenbosch, South Africa 

Located to the west of Cape Town, Stellenbosch boasts dozens of wineries for every taste. Many of the wineries offer additional attractions including wildlife excursions
