Beskrivning
From the Alpilles to the Taste Buds: goat cheese at the farm or exceptional wines in the castle, then olive oil at the mill, lunch in Les Baux, Carrières de Lumières, and a return by scenic route.
This day in the heart of the Alpilles is an elegant immersion between craftsmanship, exceptional landscapes, and artistic emotions.
The morning kicks off in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, with an experience of your choice.
You can visit the Fromagerie des Alpilles, an iconic family home. Breeders and cheesemakers from father to son, the Rueda family has been perpetuating authentic know-how for several decades around a herd of about 140 goats. The visit lets you get up close to the animals, understand their breeding, and then enjoy a tasting of goat cheeses with varied textures and flavors: fresh and sweet, plain or flavored, with herbs, pepper, pink berries, or olive oil.
Alternatively, you can opt for a wine tasting at Château Romanin, located in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, at the foot of the remains of a 13th-century castle. Nestled on a slope of the Alpilles, this estate with a remarkable setting produces the three colors of wine. An elegant discovery, between terroir, history, and majestic landscapes.
The route then continues to an oil mill for a tasting of Provençal olive oils, revealing all the aromatic richness of this iconic green gold of the region.
Lunch is in the mythical village of Les Baux-de-Provence, perched on its rocky outcrop. You'll have free time to enjoy a meal in a typical Provençal atmosphere, then stroll through its narrow streets, admire the ancient stones and the spectacular panoramas.
The afternoon is dedicated to the Carrières de Lumières, a one-of-a-kind digital art center. In this ancient mineral site, the works come to life on the monumental walls: deep colors, shapes, and volumes envelop the space. An immersive experience, simultaneously soaring, peaceful, and unsettling, where art and music dialogue in striking harmony.
The return is through the typical villages of the Alpilles, offering a last confidential break through preserved landscapes, bathed in light.
A refined day, balanced between gourmet discoveries, culture, and natural beauty, designed to savor the authentic soul of Provence.
