Food and Wine

If you are craving an experience that will satiate your appetite, then it’s time to start planning a culinary tour. A food and wine getaway are not only about dining on delicious meals and drinking fine wine, it’s also an amazing way to immerse yourself in a new culture by tasting the various dishes a region is known for. Your travel advisor will build a mouthwatering package that can include wine tastings, cooking classes, tours of farms and vineyards, and so much more. Interested in learning how to make your very own tortillas and tamales, then head to Mexico. Have you ever wanted to indulge in pastéis de nata a.k.a. a custard tart, then plan a trip to Portugal. When it comes to the world’s culinary scene, the option for travel is endless.

FAQS

What is Argentinian food like?

Argentine beef and wine are the two musts when visiting Argentina. Breakfast is usually served until 10:00am while lunch usually runs from 12:30-3pm (most locals eat around 1 or 1:30). Dinner is from 8:30-midnight, and locals dine from 9pm until as late 11pm. Several restaurants stay open all night, catering to the after-theater and night-club crowd.

Are there wineries on the East Coast?

While the better known vineyards in the U.S. are on the West Coast, the Eastern U.S. has some lovely vineyards, easily accessible from several major cities. The Virginia Wine Trail Tour is a great place to start. The best time to visit is September. There are also a handful of wonderful wineries in Rhode Island and Pennsylvania that your Brownell advisor can help you book.

Can you arrange private wine-tasting tours?

Absolutely. We recommend spending a night or two in San Francisco, and then heading north through the beautiful Sonoma Valley Wine Country. Your Brownell advisor can arrange for tours of some vineyards that are totally closed to the public.
