Have a nice WE
Great weekend!
The 2 visits (Domaine de Montine and Les Gravennes) proved to be very interesting.
Each time, we were warmly welcomed.
The picnic was very good and the walk very pleasant.
As for accommodation, the welcome at Bastide St Bach was excellent: cosy room, quality breakfast and refreshing swimming pool!
In the evening, we enjoyed a delicious meal at the Oxalys restaurant.
Finally, the electric bike ride was also very pleasant.

We œnologie Suze la Rousse
The visit to the Gravennes estate was extraordinary, with in-depth explanations of the vineyards and the winery. These 2 young people deserve our congratulations for their acc, their explanations, their availability and their enthusiasm for working in the vineyard. Our night at the hotel la bastide saint bach was excellent, the rooms were very clean, but there was a big problem with the attitude of the gentleman at the front desk: a cold welcome, we seemed rather to be annoying him, perhaps because there were so few people around... not smiling.... a pity, as this gentleman damages the reputation of the establishment. The evening meal was excellent at the Chapelle restaurant in St Paul trois châteaux, serious service with a smile, explanations, nothing to complain about except compliments.
It's a pity we can't go cycling at this time of year.

Perfect!
A beautiful immersion in the heart of the vineyards. Between tasting and landscapes, learning and a warm welcome. Perfectly organized and very pleasant hosts. Succulent restaurant. A wonderful weekend of discovery, unfortunately under the mistral wind.

Friendly region
The trip went well. The region is very pleasant (Drôme, Vaucluse) and the bike rides are a plus. We enjoyed tasting (especially at Viret and Les Adrès) and eating. All the winemakers were passionate. One suggestion for improvement: for a slightly more expensive stay, but a local transport service would be appreciated to get to the various places. Otherwise, having your own car is a must. Best regards.

A must!
Everything was perfect, starting with the organization and the quality of the services. Thank you Vinotrip, and thank you to everyone for the warm welcome, the kindness and the passion each of you put into your work. What wonderful discoveries in a region that exudes Provence and the sweetness of life! A great weekend that we shared as a family, far from our daily lives, an interlude of pure pleasure!
We really liked the Domaine de Gravenne.
We'll be back for sure.
