More than a wine tour, discover Provence through wine, gastronomy and local lifestyle with me.

Highlights

  • Visit an organic winery & try their best gastronomic wines

Description

You'll start with a walk through the magical Sainte Victoire Valley, the area I call home. You'll immerse yourself in nature and experience the local ambiance beyond the usual tourist paths.

Then, I'll explain to you the specificity of the Côtes de Provence Sainte Victoire appellation, a prestigious region with only 31 producers.

I selected an organic estate where you'll learn more about wine production and the art of tasting before trying their best gastronomic cuvées.

After that, we'll play a traditional game of pétanque and share a gourmet picnic that I'll prepare for you with local saucisson, olives, goat cheese, figs, lavender honey, herbs and 3 different olive oils.

It will be the perfect moment to open a delicious rosé from another winery made with totally different grape varieties.

Join me for this relaxed, authentic and premium experience sharing the Provençal art of living.
