Signature wine journeys, 2027 edition
We design wine journeys tailored to you. No set packages: every itinerary is created with you in mind.

About us
We don’t plan trips. We design moments.
Wine is our way in: it lives in the landscape, at the table, in the people and in the history of every region. From there, AVINE JOURNEYS builds complete itineraries, with estates, private tastings, restaurants, accommodation and transfers designed as one.
We are not a package-tour agency. We work as a curation house: every journey is designed from scratch, so your time is spent with purpose, unhurried and uncompromised.
Our philosophy
Like a great wine, a great journey needs time, place and someone who knows how to care for it.

Starting points
These are not packages. They are inspirations we redesign entirely around your dates, your pace and what you want to experience.
Family estates above the river, Port tastings where it is born and the chance to join the harvest.
Cypress-lined hills, centuries-old cellars and long lunches where the table is part of the tasting.
The Left Bank and Saint-Émilion, with private visits to estates rarely open to the public.
Reims, Épernay and the grand cru vineyards of the Montagne de Reims, from historic cellars to small grower producers.
Wide-horizon estates, clay-pot wines, cork oak country and an unhurried Alentejo table.
High-altitude vineyards, intense light and bodegas where Malbec found worldwide fame.
Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune, small family domaines and Pinot Noir and Chardonnay tastings where they were born.
Volcanic soils, century-old Nerello Mascalese vines and tastings overlooking the volcano and the Ionian Sea.
A few hours from Sydney, Australia’s oldest wine region, with family wineries and benchmark Semillon and Shiraz.
Have another region in mind? We design journeys to every wine region in the world.
How it works
Connoisseur or curious traveler, the process is the same: we start from what you’re looking for and take care of every detail, down to the final toast.
Dates, length of stay, who’s traveling, budget and the experiences you don’t want to miss.
We select the right region, estates, tastings, tables and places to stay for you.
We reach out to present your proposal, fine-tune the details and confirm your journey.
The more you tell us, the more precise your proposal will be. We review every request carefully and get back to you personally.
Curation at AVINE JOURNEYS is led by Eduarda Justino, a wine professional with a love for great experiences.
From her years in the industry she brings knowledge, discernment and close relationships with the people who make the wine. From her travels, the certainty that the best moments come from memorable tables, unhurried conversations and places meant to be savored slowly.
That perspective shapes every AVINE itinerary.
