My husband and I had an incredible experience and it made for a spectacular birthday present for him thanks to Guy and his wonderful team - David our wine host who made us feel at home and taught us so much about wine appreciation, and our fantastic chef who cooked up a beautiful feast! Everything made for a wonderful day - amazing food, amazing view, amazing service and company. David, please come and visit us Down Under (but maybe skip Tamworth this time!)

Chateau de la Gardine

West located in Châteauneuf -du-Pape designation, CHATEAU DE LA GARDINE offers a breath-taking view on the Mistral swept and sun bathed majestic Rhône river. Deeply rooted in a pebble covered soil, the vineyards look at the river and contrast with the blue of the sky. A winemaking family since the XVIIth century, the Brunel family settles in La Gardine middle of the XXth century. Always the pioneer, in 1967 Gaston Brunel bottles his wines in an exclusive flask representing the very identity of his house and went west to conquer new markets in Canada and the United States. CHÂTEAU DE LA GARDINE is a family business including 8 members representing 3 generations aiming to the future. One works there together in respect of the terroir, of the family values passed down from each generation to the following, consistently delivering excellence. The wines are marketed in more than 35 countries and prised on the best French tables.

I visited Chateau de la Gardine with my family of 6 adults and 2 small children. We arrived about half an hour before closing time. Florence made us very welcome and took us on a tour outside, showing us the various vines and soil types. Inside we tasted delicious wines and had all our questions answered. When my daughter needed to breastfeed her baby, she was taken to a private area and made very comfortable. All in all an outstanding experience.

We booked a tasting at Vignobles Mayard as there were 13 of us on a visit from the Var region. The tasting hostess was friendly and welcoming and spoke excellent English (I subsequently discovered she is Dutch, but multi-lingual with it). We tasted six different red wines, ranging in price from just E12 to well over E30 per bottle, all of them extremely palatable. Having done many wine-tasting trips in the south of France, this was our first foray into Chateauneuf du Pape and it was considerably different from other regions, as well-explained by the hostess, who seemed to know her product very well. It was interesting to learn of the process, to be given some tips on how to taste properly, and what type of taste/smell we should be looking for. All in all a really excellent experience.

Rocher des Doms

Reviewed By jazzfang - Salaberry-de-Valleyfield, Canada

This wonderful park is filled with spots to sit in the shade on a warm day, breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes of the Provencal valley and even has a cute cafe seated near a fountain ! Don’t miss the porcelain graphic representation of the views (local towns and mountains) and the sundial in the middle of the park. You can also contemplate the effects of WWII at the jewish memorial (a mural commemorating those lost in the war).
