Half Day Tour : Two Wine Estates
Wine Uncovered offers expert-led guided visits to leading wine domaines in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Vacqueyras, Rasteau, Sablet, Tavel, Lirac, Séguret and
other Rhône Wine Villages.
All my tours take you into the heart of the vineyards. The remote vineyard parcels that we visit are located in some of the most scenic and dramatic landscapes in Provence - it is only by getting into these vineyards that you can truly appreciate the souls of the wines that you taste.
As we visite the cellars - I explain key elements of the winemaking process.
As we visit the scenic vineyards I explain the local appellation and the local wine-growing culture - in particular the notion of "terroir"
As we taste the wines - I explain the tasting characteristics of the Rhône grape varieties, the ageing potential of the wines and the varying influences of the terroir and cellar methods.
* I supply a small selection of cheese and
biscuit swith most of the wines that we taste
