Beschreibung
Stroll through Côte-Rôtie’s hillsides and visit a local winery for a unique tour and tasting. From breathtaking landscapes to winemaking savoir-faire, enjoy an immersion in the heart of the vineyard.
Experience Côte-Rôtie in all its authenticity through a complete journey combining walking, meeting, and tasting. Starting from Ampuis, embark on a roughly one-hour hike through the steep hillsides of this prestigious Northern Rhône vineyard. Here, for over two millennia, vines have clung to the steep slopes, shaping a unique landscape where every row tells a story.
Guided by a passionate local, you’ll learn to read this living tapestry: recognizing the emblematic grape varieties, understanding the role of terraces and stone walls, and discovering how the Rhône River and climate influence the character of the wines. Historical anecdotes, local traditions, and fascinating vineyard curiosities mingle with spectacular views offered along the path.
After the walk, your immersion continues with a visit to a local winery, carefully selected based on the winemaker’s availability. Each visit is unique: sometimes in the cool atmosphere of a vaulted cellar, sometimes in the heart of the winery among stainless steel vats and oak barrels. For about 1.5 hours, the winemaker opens the doors to their craft and world. You will observe precise gestures, tools, and methods that transform grapes into exceptional wines.
The visit concludes with a guided tasting, a true sensory journey where each wine reveals the identity of its terroir. Delicate aromas of fruits, spices, and flowers intertwine, supported by the minerality and elegance that make Côte-Rôtie famous. You will understand how the soil, exposure, and the hands of the winemaker combine to create these exceptional cuvées.
This experience is designed for both seasoned enthusiasts and curious visitors wishing to discover the vine and wine from within. Far from impersonal circuits, it offers moments of sharing, exchange, and discovery at the pace of the terroir and those who nurture it.
Travel is done by your own vehicle, with an option for pick-up by an external service on extra.
