Wine tour information from Wine Travel Guides now free to view

Sancerre from Saint-Satur

An extract from a press release by Wink Lorch on Wine Travels Guides – I write the Loire entries – announcing that all the content can now be viewed for no charge.

'London, UK (PRWeb UK) 3 November, 2009 -- In response to the increased interest in wine tourism in Europe and the lack of independent information for wine travellers, the Wine Travel Guides website has made its wealth of content free to view from the end of October 2009. Previously, the 50 guides to France, Italy and Spain were only available to paid annual subscribers, but now all website visitors can freely view the in-depth information to plan their own wine tours.

Aimed at independent travellers who want to include a wine tour as part of their visit to Europe, the exclusive on-line guides include over 1,500 recommendations of wine producers to visit, places to stay, eat and shop, local attractions as well as detailed information on regional wines. The 50 guides cover all major French wine regions <http://www.winetravelguides.com/guides/France> as well as Tuscany in Italy and Rioja in Spain; more regions are planned for the future.

The Wine Travel Guides website was launched by wine writer Wink Lorch <http://www.winetravelguides.com/Info/aboutus#owner>, owner of Wine Travel Guides, in 2007. She commissioned insider experts, many of them well-known wine and travel writers to write the guides and has always sought high quality, independent content.'
