Tasting Wine in Burgundy - Rick Steves' Europe Travel Bite
The vineyards come with a long memory in "Tasting Wine in Burgundy - Rick Steves' Europe Travel Bite." Rick Steves' Europe turns its attention to the rolling Côte d'Or hills and a winemaking family whose connection to the land stretches back centuries. It's a small slice of France rather than a packed itinerary, and the week's only new upload drew about 7,000 views in its opening 13 hours.
France also fills the channel's busiest viewing spots. The wine-tasting bite has the highest daily viewing rate, followed closely by "Rick Steves Best of Paris," which has passed 200,000 views. That hour-long city visit makes room for practical Métro tips alongside Sainte-Chapelle's stained glass and jazz in a medieval cellar. Meanwhile, "Burgundy Barge Cruise - Rick Steves' Europe Travel Bite" offers another way into the wine region: refurbished freight barges carrying visitors past villages and vineyards.
The subscriber count held steady over the week, while daily viewing is a little below its usual level. Among nearby travel channels, Camper MidNight and Tyler Morgan - Japan Adventures had much busier weeks; Rick's channel added roughly 808,000 views across its catalog. For viewers following his French itinerary, the choice is pleasantly specific: Parisian nightlife, canal travel or a taste of Burgundy.
