What a wonderful time! This tour is a must do when you visit the region. We had a great time with Roman, touring the different wineries in Chatenouf de Pape and learning about wine. Everything was delicious and very enjoyable. Make sure you do this tour!

This tour is top notch if you’re looking to understand more about Châteauneuf-du-Pape and their amazing wine. Coline was a wonderful source of information as were the wineries visited. While it was a long day…every minute was spectacular including lunch. No need to look further, book now!

    The wineries were wonderful. The Chateauneuf de Pape is such a beautiful area of France. Roman was the best tour guide. He had many insights and connections with the wineries and region that few could boast. We highly recommend this tour.

    Bill_D, May 2026
    The wineries we visited were great, the wines tasted great with a lot of variety. Colleen was very friendly and very knowledgeable about both the wines as well as the area. She even joined us for coffee after the tour was finished - THANK YOU!!

    Great wine tour!

    Fred_C, May 2026
    Clemence met us near the Palace of the Pope at 9:30 and drove us in a nice van (our tour started at 4 with 2 others joining after lunch) that had good AC (95F day) and plenty of space. Quick drive to our first winery in Chateauneuf de Pape, which was the smallest of the day. Tour of the part of the vineyard and great discussion on the soil and stone utilized for the 8 red and 5 white grapes. The 4 tasted wines were excellent. We then visited another beautiful winery and able to taste both red and whites. Clemence dropped us off at a beautiful hotel/winery for lunch with a beautiful view (approx 35-40e pp w/1 wine). After lunch we met again to visit another winery and then a final stop at their wine cave/store in the historic village. Back to Avignon just anfter 5pm. All wineries were great and welcoming - recommend the tour and Clemence as host!

    Quelle belle journée!

    Edouard_P, Apr 2026
    The Chateauneuf du Pape tour provided a cornucopia of picturesque scenery, a sampling of the Southern Rhône’s most renowned wines and was capped off with a beautiful meal enjoyed on the terrace of a 19th century castle overlooking the majestic, sun-drenched vineyards of this prestigious appellation. This beautiful day was further enriched by Coline, our highly adept, friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. Bravo!

    Just what we were looking for!!

    Amazing tour of Chateauneuf du Pape

    John_C, Apr 2026
    We ended up being the only people on this tour because it was a windy day. Our guide was terrific. It ended up being a provate tour for us. The wineries were very well selected and exposed to us a nice variety of vineyards and wines. It was an education both from our guide and the people at the winery. The lunch stop was absolutely delicious. I couldn't recommend this more. It was definitely a hilight.

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Hi John! Thank you very much for your great feedback! Hoping to see you again !

    Great Excursion

    John_L, Apr 2026
    Our guide was great. Romain had personal experience with the region, as well as professional knowledge and skills related to the Chateauneuf du Papes wine region. This was a fun and tasty experience. The best excursion of our trip to France.

    Bernard_B, Apr 2026
    Great variety of wines to taste in wineries that each had their own special character. A day we'll spent with a very knowledgeable and capable guide

    Amazing Tour and Tastings

    The BEST wines ever!

    Jim_M, Mar 2026
    My husband and I both traveled to many countries exploring the love of wineries. We didn’t think any country out there could possibly beat the California wines in the USA, until we came here!! These wines are amazing! Highly recommend this trip! We had a lack of communication with the start point, so get that settled BEFORE hand. You will be very glad you chose this!!

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Hi Jim! Thank you very much for your great feedback! Hoping to see you again !

    Stop thinking and do it

    Dave_P, Mar 2026
    It was a privilege to spend the day with a top sommelier like Roman. I learned a lot, I just hope I can retain it. I highly recommend this to anyone that wants a true French wine experience. It was worth every cent. If you are thinking of doing this, stop thinking and sign up. You will not regret it.

    Sunny with a side of wine

    Alyssa_S, Mar 2026
    We were so fortunate to have Roman as our guide. He is a certified sommelier and resident of Chateauneuf de Pape. He was passionate, engaging,& incredibly knowledgeable. The wineries we visited knew him well and truly respected him and his wealth of information. It was a beautiful day with both the weather and our guide. We would highly recommend this tour with Roman.

    Hello Thank you very much for your sweet review, I really appreciate. Keep drinking good wines :-)

    Extraordinary Wine Tour with "Provence and Wine"

    Jerry_K, Mar 2026
    We had a wonderful tour with Clemence from Provence and Wine two days ago. We met her in Avignon at 9:30 and she drove us away and up to Chateauneuf du Pape for a full day of wine and information. She is an extraordinary young woman, full of excitement for the subject, and well-educated - a perfect guide for this experience. We visited two domains in the morning, at which we tasted 4 and then 3 different Chateuneuf du Pape wines. Clemence then brought us to a really nice restaurant where my wife and I had a wonder lunch (accompanied by another glass of wine, of course). We took about 15 minutes at the end of the lunch break to walk around the village and take some photos. After lunch we visited two *more* producers, including Chateau La Nerthe, one of the biggest (if not the biggest) in the Appellation, at which we tasted another number of different wines. Those at this Chateau included a couple of wines we could not afford to touch on our own at the prices being asked at retail - wonderful, wonderful wines. Finally Clemence brought us to the Provence and Wine Cellar, where we listened to a record and sampled a few more wines. An incredible full day, lasting almost 8 hours door-to-door, at which we tasted 17 (we think - lost count!!) wonderful wines. We didn't turn our noses up at a single sip. Highly recommended the tour, and the guide!

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Dear Jerry, What a pleasure to read your review! I'm so glad you had such a great time with us. We hope to welcome you again one day. Clémence

    Chère Olya, I’m really happy to read your review. Wasn’t it a wonderful way to celebrate your birthday? I’ll be cheering with you from afar when you open your bottle, and I hope it will help you remember this beautiful day. A bientôt ! Clémence

    We learned so much from...

    Sheila_P, Feb 2026
    We learned so much from our wonderful and knowledgeable guide, Clemence, who showed us all aspects of the winemaking process from vineyard to vintage. We tasted amazing wines at each of the wine castles, enjoyed a gourmet lunch in between(optional) and finished strong with a blind tasting in which we got to test our new found knowledge.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Dear Sheila, I’m so glad to read your review. I also had a wonderful time with you and your family. The blind tasting was truly a lot of fun! Enjoy your wines, and always remember this lovely moment. Clémence
