Join your driver-guide on a cultural and gourmet adventure, including an introduction to wine and a tasting session with a local winemaker. Travel through scenic landscapes where villages glow in warm golden stones.

Relish a wine-tasting session amid the vineyards, savoring two distinct wines paired with a local pastry, while learning about the “terroir” that makes each wine unique. Continue to Oingt, a 12th-century village listed as one of France’s Most Beautiful Villages, and stroll its medieval streets.
