Wine Travel Paired With Simplicity.
WINE IS COMPLICATED. WINE COUNTRY ISN'T.
Wine is complicated enough, traveling to wine country doesn’t have to be.
The goal of Carpe Travel is to provide a resource for wine lovers – from novices to experienced pros – to support them on their wine county adventures. To arm them with details on the regions, insider tips, must-visit spots, and things to see and do beyond the vines.
Elaine Schoch, the founder and editor of Carpe Travel began this site as a place to share her family travel adventures nearly a decade ago. As her kids grew, so did their travels and Elaine’s passion for visiting wine country whenever she could – even with the kids. Pairing her passions of wine and travel Carpe Travel has become a travel resource for wine lovers and resources for things to do beyond the vines.
The contributors to Carpe Travel share their expertise, tips and ideas on exploring wine country around the world. Be it in one of the 50 United States, Italy, France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, British Columbia, South Africa and more. (Even with kids!)
Every wine region has a story, and it’s so much more than what’s in the bottle.
I’m sharing those stories, one sip at a time.
It’s soooo easy to combine any vacation into a wine country visit, and so that’s what we do.
