Enjoy an interactive workshop, learning all about Belvedere vodka, and enjoy a cocktails and caviar pairing with a personalized gift to bring home.
New Zealand
Take in the breathtaking sights of New Zealand, while learning a thing or two about the exceptional wine-growing culture. Check out the Forage to Table: Taste New Zealand’s Natural Wonders, which is again, completely customizable, but tends to begin around $29,250 per person. Explore New Zealand’s South Island along a six-day journey, including that otherworldly beauty of the region’s famous landscape. Hop on a private speed-boat transfer to your Queenstown accommodations and enjoy some free time together visiting Central Otago’s growing art scene. One unique aspect of the trip exclusive to the tour is a full-day, private helicopter tour over the fjords, landing for a fresh-caught lunch only available through this tour.
Antarctica
One locale you might not immediately think, “wine!” — Antarctica is in Moët Hennessy’s experience offering list. Check out The Wonders of Antarctica with guest experiences, including airport transfers to your hotel from Cape Town, where your journey begins; private-jet transfer from Cape Town to Antarctica; a day at Atka Bay with resident emperor penguins; an option to tour blue ice tunnels; a visit to a Russian science base, followed by a stint in the sauna; Clos19 signature dining and tasting; and pre-arranged flights to the South Pole. All accommodations, private guides and transfers, as well as food and drinks, are all included in the tour. Already a dream destination for most families, why not add in the rare luxury of a wine tasting and fine-dining pairing in Antarctica.
Before the end of the tour, you’ll be an expert in Moët Hennessy wines, spirits and luxury experiences. Expect to be ruined for all other vacations.
