Gigondas and Châteauneuf-du-Pape Wine Tour
Explore two renowned Rhône Valley wine villages, with time to discover their landscapes, local character, and exceptional wines.

Gigondas and Châteauneuf-du-Pape Wine Tour

Discover two of the Rhône Valley's most renowned wine villages on a full-day journey from Avignon, combining the picturesque landscapes of Gigondas and Châteauneuf-du-Pape with an exclusive wine experience at Château La Nerthe.

Begin in Gigondas, set beneath the suggestive Dentelles de Montmirail, where you will have time to explore the village at your own pace. Wander through its charming streets, discover local shops and wine producers, and admire views over the surrounding vineyards and mountains. Continue to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where you can enjoy free time for lunch and take in the atmosphere of this historic wine village, known for its stone houses, vineyards, and panoramic views across the Rhône Valley.

In the afternoon, visit Château La Nerthe, one of the oldest and most prestigious estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Enjoy a private guided tour of the château, vineyards, and historic 16th- and 18th-century cellars, learning about the estate's winemaking traditions and aging methods. The experience concludes with a tasting of five Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines in a private tasting room, potentially including rare cuvées or older vintages. Return to Avignon after a relaxed day immersed in the wine heritage and landscapes of the Rhône Valley.
