New for 2008 is our "Search for the Best Rosé" writers' retreat. Given our proximity to some of the best rosé-producing appellations in France--including Tavel, Cote de Provence, and Bandol--a refeshing late summer rosé retreat was a no-brainer. Based on the advice of previous Words & Wine writers' retreat participants, we've crafted this trip to feature:

• 8 days and 7 nights of bed & breakfast accommodations at the Notre Dame de Cousignac winery, an authentic working vineyard,
• Gourmet French and Provencal meals at the winery and at some of the top restaurants in the region,
• Unlimited wine at the Notre Dame de Cousignac winery,
• Exclusive vineyard tours and private tastings with winemakers at a variety of small and large rosé wine producers throughout Provence and southern France,
• Optional day trips to Avignon, Cassis (the  French Riviera), and Aix-en-Provence,
• A unique writing experience you won't find anywhere else!

If you have the same passion for rosé wines that we do, or are just curious about the hip rosé phenomenon, then you cannot miss this trip. For more information, please click through the headings above or click the button below to book your reservation now.
