What to expect
You'll spend the morning and early afternoon bouncing along vineyard roads in a snug, characterful 2CV—expect the wind, the smell of grapevines, and genuine hospitality at each stop. At each château, someone will walk you through the winemaking process, show you fermentation tanks or barrel rooms, and pour several wines to taste. Your guide acts as translator and context-giver, sharing stories about the region's history and techniques. Bring sunscreen and wear comfortable shoes for any cellar walks.
Good to know
The picnic (€30 extra) arrives midday with local produce, water, wine, coffee and dessert—book ahead if you want it. Bring a light jacket for breezy convertible driving. All fitness levels welcome; château visits involve some stairs and uneven ground. Service animals permitted.
