Stop atChateauneuf-du-Pape
On this full day journey, depart for the famous Chateauneuf du Pape vineyard. As you reach this historic wine producing region (planted by the Romans during the 14th century), discover the village & its ancient castle that was the summer residence of the Pope's during their stay in the area and enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view on the valley. During the morning, you will visit and taste local wines in a carefully selected winery. At lunch, your guide will suggest different local options. After lunch, experience your second Chateauneuf du Pape winery tour. In each winery of the day, you will first be introduced to the estate and its history. Then, your visit will focus on the wine making process and the visit of the technical installations. The local wines are well known for their full bodied red wines made predominantly with different grape varieties such as Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre, typical local grapes in south of France. After the second visit, we will take you back to Aix.

Small group with quality content and lots of time

We had an incredible time with our guide Camille, who was very knowledgeable, warm and funny. It was an intimate, small group and we had plenty of time at each vineyard to talk, ask questions and taste a lot of wine! Transport and logistics went smoothly and the vineyard tours were of fantastic quality and content.

We had a wonderful time with our guide, Lucille. She was so nice, easy to talk to, loved a good laugh and was beyond knowledgable. She obviously knows the vineyards and the teams working on them well, as they all seemed like old friends, which made the tastings relaxed and enjoyable. The selections we tasted were all so different and amazing, a really great variety! Would highly recommend!
