The Wine Travelers is the premier television lifestyle series about wine makers and the great wine regions of the world. While the show is travel-based and centered on various wine regions, the real focus is on the people living in wine country. The characters we meet are fascinating and often hilarious, and they offer unusual access to the regions in which they live. Our approach to filming is low-key, and intimate. We become part of the family, and are able to truly capture the beautiful reality of the winemaking lifestyle and culture. It is this kind of access and intimacy that makes The Wine Travelers a unique television experience. As we travel, we discover the food, music, traditions and attractions that make wine regions such special places to visit. For foodies, The Wine Travelers is a bonanza of regional food specialties and their pairing with regional wines.
High-quality music and gorgeous scenery are central to the series. Filmed on 24p digital video in a contemporary style and set to a cutting-edge soundtrack featuring both modern and traditional music, The Wine Travelers is all about wine, winemakers, travel and having a whole lot of fun.

Along the way meet the wild characters that will change your perception of the wine world forever!
