What to expect
Meet your guide between 10:30–10:45 and receive a fitted helmet and e-bike orientation before heading into the vineyards.

Mid-tour, settle into the vineyard setting for a locally sourced picnic that complements the wines you've sampled. The pace suits all abilities; the e-bikes handle the hills, so focus stays on the scenery, the wine education, and the regional stories your guide shares.
