Amid Spain’s famed Basque country in Bilbao, gather with your fellow connoisseurs for a journey through the culinary tradition of pintxos, the local tapas. Located within the heart of Spain’s cider production and culture, Gijón beckons you to sample the locally crafted drink and gain a greater appreciation for the tradition. Staying overnight in the UNESCO-listed Bordeaux, there’s time to explore the Castles Route, which passes eight of the most famous châteaux, the perfect combination of wine and history. With an overnight in the iconic Lisbon, there’s plenty of time to explore its many corners. From the resting place of famous explorer Vasco de Gama at Jeronimos Monastery to the impressive turrets of São Jorge Castle, this city offers a deep dive into the past to satiate your curiosity. La Rochelle’s Old Town exudes enchantment with a wealth of towers, arches and cathedrals. Once you have worked up an appetite, stop at one of the seaside restaurants for a serving of mouclade, mussels prepared in cream, saffron, white wine and a hint of curry spice.

Jon Schlegel Visiting Vintner
Jon Schlegel completed his first dream of opening a restaurant by age 30 when he founded Snooze, an A.M Eatery where the motto was, “It only takes a moment to make a difference.” He then moved onto his second dream – living abroad before he turned 40. He and his family moved to Monforte d’Alba in Piemonte, Italy, in 2013 and settled on the Ginestra Hill with their own small Barolo vineyard. There, Jon worked and learned from wine producing families with generations of experience.
