Overview

The Northern Rhône Valley is known for steep vineyards and notable wines like Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, and Condrieu. This guided wine tour from Lyon lasts about four hours and fifteen minutes. A local guide drives participants in a luxury air-conditioned Mercedes, providing detailed commentary on the region's history, grape varieties such as Syrah, Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne, and insights into the estates visited. The tour includes stops at several villages in the Rhône Valley, with a first stop near Chavanay for a tasting of four to six wines at a local estate. Afterward, the group moves to Ampuis for another tasting of four to six typical regional wines. Along the way, there are chances to admire the vineyards on steep slopes. Tastings include about eight to ten wines total, accompanied by small snacks. The guide can speak English and French simultaneously if participants require both languages. The tour returns to Lyon at the end.
