After three gruelling weeks of cycling through the European heatwave, the Tour de France reaches its traditional finish on the Champs-Élysées in Paris today.

While this stage doesn't pass through a wine region, Champagne is the closest to the French capital, and a fitting way to celebrate the end of the race. Our Champagne range spans everything from small grower producers to the region's most recognised houses 🍾

There's no better toast to the finish - until next year 🚲

The Tour de France has been spending some time in Savoie, a small wine region at the foothills of the French Alps.

This cool, mountainous region produces some fantastic and unique wines from a combination of native local varieties like Jacquère and Mondeuse, alongside more familiar grapes like Gamay and Pinot Noir. Fresh whites and crunchy reds are the style here, reflecting its alpine location. Savoie is also thought to be the birthplace of French vermouth!

This little region has plenty of character, and should be on your radar 📍

Todays stage takes the Tour into Alsace, a cool-climate wine region in Eastern France.

Here, French and German traditions have both influenced the winemaking scene, producing beautifully aromatic white wines. Alsace is home to some of the world's finest Riesling, Gewürztraminer and Pinot Blanc, alongside excellent Crémant and traditional grape spirits. Freshness, purity and elegance are the hallmarks of this great region.

If you enjoy aromatic whites, there's no place quite like Alsace!

Tonight the Tour is in Jura, one of France's smallest wine regions and one with a dedicated cult following.

Tucked in between Burgundy and Switzerland, Jura has a reputation for producing some of France's most distinctive and exciting wines. Despite its modest size, the region produces everything from crisp sparkling wines and whites aged under flor to vibrant, savoury reds made from local varieties such as Trousseau and Poulsard.

If you've never explored Jura before and want to know what the fuss is about, these bottles are a great place to begin!🍾

Our Tour de France region exploration continues into the Loire Valley, home to some of France's freshest and most versatile wines.

The region is perhaps best known for Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc, but the Loire produces everything from elegant sparkling wines to vibrant reds, particularly some excellent Cabernet Franc. You'll also find familiar grapes like Pinot Noir and Gamay grown here, offering great value compared to their more famous neighbours. Not to mention one of the world's most recognisable liqueurs - Cointreau.

These are just a few bottles that show how special the Loire Valley is 🍷

The Tour de France returns to France's Southwest this evening, where it will spend the next two stages.

We explored the region's wines a few days ago, but this part of France is also home to two of the world's great brandies, Armagnac and Cognac. Both are made from distilled wine and aged in oak, though Armagnac tends to be a bit richer and more rustic, while Cognac is typically double distilled, leading to a smoother, more elegant spirit.

A warming glass is perfect on these cold winter nights ❄️

The Tour has arrived in Bordeaux for Stage 7, one of the world's most celebrated wine regions.

Bordeaux's red wines are legendary, but the drinking culture of the region is incredibly diverse and has much more to offer. Alongside its renowned estates, you'll find approachable everyday reds, crisp white blends, more classic aperitifs, and the world's benchmark dessert wines in Sauternes.

A great stop on the tour, and an even better region to explore in your glass.

The Tour de France is currently making its way through France's Southwest, one of the country's most underrated wine regions.

While Bordeaux often steals the spotlight, the Southwest is home to an incredibly diverse range of regional styles. It offers everything from classically structured Malbecs to vibrant regional blends and refreshing aperitifs. There's plenty to discover here, beyond France's most famous wine regions. These bottles are a great place to start exploring! 📍

The Tour has arrived in France!

Stage 4 takes the cyclists through Languedoc-Roussillon, France's largest wine region and one of its most diverse. Stretching from the Mediterranean coast to the foothills of the Pyrenees, it's home to everything from fresh, food-friendly whites to reds packed with Southern French character, alongside a tradition of classic aperitifs.

There's a lot to love about Languedoc-Roussillon, and these are a great way to explore the region🍷

The 2026 Tour de France kicks off this evening!

The Tour may be French, but this year's race begins in Catalunya, Spain - a region home to an incredibly diverse drinking culture. From world-class Cava and bold Mediterranean reds to traditional vermouth and iconic beers, Catalunya has something for everyone. We've pulled together some of our favourite Catalan drinks to enjoy alongside the opening stages, before the cyclists cross the French border 🚲
