Start date: Jun 30, 2004, End date: Mar 30, 2008 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The main aim of this project is to group together two major activities: tourism and wine production. This implies working at local level in villages, terroirs and regions to develop a new network of sustainable tourism which will respect the environment, identity and diversities of each. The project considers wine as the common identity of this new tourist offer. It intends to promote wine production as a vector of cultural identity and a factor of sustainable development. It therefore implements the following actions: establishing a wine tourism network, training sessions and feedback from professionals, establishing quality criteria to create a hierarchy in the service providers for the Villes du vin et Terroirs Patrimoine Phare de lAtlantique, events in wine-producing towns and villages, organisation of the 2006 event "Bordeaux celebrates Wine", creation of a "wine-producing village" charter, a marketing strategy for wine tourism and the Atlantic front (publication of a tourist magazine, an events calendar indicating the major cultural events and festivals, website).
