What you can expect

From Avignon or around (contact me if you don’t stay within Avignon itself), we will go to 3 different wineries in the Côtes du Rhône area. The 3 wineries will be very different from each other, they will mostly be family businesses. Depending on the size of their estate, they can make a lot of different appellations and cuvées in white, rosé or red.

The tour usually goes to a winery in Beaumes de Venise and its famous Muscat de Beaumes de Venise, a sweet wine which can be drunk as an aperitif wine or a dessert wine. Also, it usually goes to Gigondas, a small area famous for its red wine, the most famous red wine in the Southern Rhône after Châteauneuf du Pape. And we finish with a winery in Châteauneuf du Pape area to taste the very famous red wine but also to discover the less famous white wine from there (if the tour starts in the afternoon, the tour will start in Châteauneuf du Pape to finish in Beaumes de Venise).

After the second tasting, if you chose this tour starting in the morning between April and October, we will share a wonderful picnic made with fresh products from local farmers (for instance: fresh eggs, tapenade, bell peppers cream, goat cheese, seasonal fruits, fruits juice) for a convivial time spent together.
