The Experience

The sommelier is already moving through the rows when you arrive, pointing out which vines catch the afternoon light and which ones face the mountains. This is where the tour starts — not with a speech, but with a walk through the vineyard itself, learning how the terroir between the sea and the Alps shapes what grows here. You'll hear about the local grape varieties, the soil, the microclimate, the traditions that have held for generations. It's the kind of knowledge that makes the wine taste different once you understand it.

Then you move into the winery building, where the work actually happens. You see the tanks, the aging barrels, the equipment that turns grapes into what you're about to taste. The sommelier walks you through the process — fermentation, aging, bottling — and it stops being abstract. After that comes the tasting itself: five local wines, each one poured with an explanation of what you're tasting and why. If you've booked the Gourmet or Private option, artisanal cheese arrives alongside the wines, which changes everything about how the flavors land. The pairing is deliberate, not random.

The whole experience runs a few hours, and if you've chosen the private tour with transfer, a driver picks you up from your Nice hotel, brings you out to the vineyard, and returns you afterward. No navigating buses or figuring out the route — you just show up and the day unfolds. Groups stay small, which means the sommelier can actually answer questions instead of herding people through. Wheelchair access is available throughout the vineyard and winery, and the pace is set for tasting, not rushing.
