Speaking directly with wine producers is the best way to learn about winemaking techniques and regional specificities. KIRA coordinates visits to winemaking regions across France, providing unrivalled learning experiences and tasting sessions, as well as valuable introductions to established and emerging winemakers.
KIRA vineyard study trips begin with a seminar to understand the fundamentals of wine production in your chosen region and introduce you to the winemakers you will meet. Visits last from three to five days and offer leading educational services in an intimate setting, in addition to regional Michelin Starred dining with winemakers and more casual meals at wine estates.
Groups are limited to a maximum of 12 professionals (such as winemakers, retailers, importers, sommeliers or serious enthusiasts) and are led by KIRA founders Franck Ramage and Charlotte King. Discover some of the winemaking regions included in our vineyard study trips on the following pages.
Vineyard transportation, wine tastings, vineyard masterclasses, meals (unless otherwise noted) and accommodation are included and adapted to the needs of each group.
If you would like to arrange for a private tour for your group, contact us so that we may coordinate with your needs.

testimonials
From the base of Hermitage, to dripping underground caves in Äy; from a candlelit tasting in Lafite Rothschild’s circular cellar, to an afternoon of conversation with Cote Rôtie’s rockstar – Yves Gangloff.. I have experienced some of my greatest wine moments with the KiRa duo. Franck and Charlotte’s incredible amount of knowledge and eagerness to share are only strengthened by the wealth of connections established from decades in wine and the arts. I can’t imagine a better team to help others expand their passion!

Franck and Charlotte are the Hansel and Gretel of Wine Adventures!
They have a million ways to present excitement and laughter in every wine visit, tasting, dinner, and even, masterclasses. They are both professionals in wine and education, which makes understanding wine exceptionally effortless and thirst-quenching. Beyond their in-depth knowledge and network in French Vineyards, they always carry a magic wand on them to make every visit so much more than what others are doing.
