Over the course of one day, in an air-conditioned minibus,
We offer a circuit to discover the great wines of the valley of the Rhône, in Provence.
The AOC Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Ventoux, and Châteauneuf du Pape will no longer hold any mystery for you!
A true moment of pleasure for lovers of wines with a distinct character.
Schedule for the day :
You will begin the day with a panoramic tour at the foot of the Mont Ventoux, through the vines bearing the “appellation Ventoux.”
You will visit a “cave” and its fermentation chamber.
Your five senses will then be in play during the various tasting steps.
You will develop your knowledge of wine tasting techniques.
Our guide will instruct you in the techniques that are “key” to enjoying wines in order to recognize the aromas and interpret the tastes on your tongue.
You will taste 5 wines: 1 white, 1 rosé, and 3 reds, plus olive oil produced on-site.
You will then head in the direction of Beaumes de Venise for some free time.
You will stroll through the authentic small streets of the village.
Lunch break possible (not included).
The afternoon will give you the opportunity to put your knowledge into practice!
Direction of the Rhône Valley.
During the visit of two domains, we will explain to you the various “appellations,” domaines, and “terroirs.”
The first stop in the afternoon will be in Tavel.
A mixture of slate, cobbles, sand, and stones creates this unique rosé.
This rosé is ideal to consume in summer, around flavorful black olives and slices of bread spread with fresh goat cheese.
And to end this promenade, a last tasting is offered at Châteauneuf du Pape.
The village has the reputation of producing the best wines of the Rhône Valley.
A visit to an exceptional domaine is offered. You will taste red wines with character.
We recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes.
