2- Chateauneuf du Pape
EXCEPTIONAL LUXURY WINE TOUR IN CHÂTEAUNEUF DU PAPE
Under the influence of Bacchus, Chateauneuf-du-Pape seems nestled on a hill in the heart of Vaucluse.
At the top stand the few remains of the castle built by the popes in the 14th century. It was their summer residence to escape the summer heat of Avignon. And, it is also to the popes who we owe the first establishment of vines in the town.
But the greatest treasure that Chateauneuf-du-Pape contains are its cellars for you to discover and taste its white and red wines .
The selection offered is extremely rigorous with a panel allowing visitors to have a real insight into what the Chateauneuf-du-Pape appellation really is.
