Wallonia

Wallonia, the French-speaking southern chunk of Belgium, might be better known for its beers, but there's a secret lurking in its valleys – wine! While smaller than other Belgian wine regions, Wallonia offers a charming and unexpected wine experience.

Pinot Noir and Gamay grapes dominate here, producing light-bodied reds with bright fruit flavors and refreshing acidity. Expect some rosés and even some surprising sparkling wines made from Chardonnay.
