Everyone,
Thanks for the input, it appears that overnight is by far the preference. We're still gathering area data and should have some information available soon. At this point the dates are pretty wel locked in for June 9 & 10.
Rich, thanks for your offer we'll keep you in mind
.
Note: Tour de Vin is not only about the wines (though we try to find the best wines an area has to offer) IN FACT you don't even have to drink or enjoy wines to come on the tour. The Tour is about the people. We try to select areas with fun scenic roads and locations that can accomodate large groups and that have adequate parking/driveways. Unfortunately, the "best wineries" don't always have the best facilities......... To that end we make a number of trips to the area selected and meet with all of the wineries and stops on the tour so that they are prepared for our visit. We also drive the routes to try make sure they are suitable for our cars and to note any changes in the roads due to construction etc....
Thanks,
Mike
