The story

About this festival.

Wine Spectator Grand Tour 2026 is a wine trail event held in New York in March 2026, connecting global wine regions through curated itineraries and tasting experiences. The event draws from a platform covering 18 wine regions across 45,000+ wineries worldwide—from Napa Valley's 1,188 wineries to Bordeaux's 525—allowing attendees to explore multiple regions or focus on a single destination. Wine Spectator Grand Tour 2026 offers personalized day-by-day itineraries tailored to different travel styles: romantic getaways, serious tastings, budget-conscious trips, and luxury experiences. Participants can customize their journey by trip length (2 to 10 days), wine region, and interests including tasting rooms, food pairing, architecture, history, cycling, and photography.

The event emphasizes flexibility and global scope. Rather than a single venue, Wine Spectator Grand Tour 2026 connects attendees with GPS-mapped wineries, curated regional guides, and AI-ready wine data across regions spanning France (Bordeaux, Champagne, Burgundy, Alsace, Mosel), Italy (Tuscany), Spain (Rioja, Priorat), Australia (Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Hunter Valley), and beyond. Attendees build custom itineraries based on their preferences and experience level.

Specific ticket pricing, venue details, and organizer information remain to be announced. Visit the official website for updates on registration, final pricing, and detailed itinerary options.
