Embark on a private wine tour from Aix-en-Provence and discover some of the finest wines of Provence with an English-speaking local expert. Travel in a premium, air‑conditioned vehicle and enjoy a tailor‑made itinerary through the appellations that interest you most.
From Aix, you can reach several renowned Provence appellations, each with its own terroir, grape varieties and style. With your wine‑specialist guide, learn how the soils, climate and winemaking techniques shape the character of the wines as you tour estates and ageing cellars.
All full‑day tours include guided tastings at carefully selected wineries, with the option to focus on reds, rosés or whites according to your preferences.
To the west of Aix, the Coteaux d’Aix‑en‑Provence vineyards stretch from the Durance River to the Mediterranean and from the Rhône Valley towards Mont Sainte‑Victoire. This appellation is known for structured red wines with firm yet supple tannins and generous texture, as well as round, aromatic rosés often marked by a fresh, mineral finish.
At the foot of Mont Sainte‑Victoire, this sub‑appellation grows on poor but high‑quality limestone and sandstone soils. The result is expressive reds ranging from delicate to more powerful and age‑worthy, and pale, elegant rosés with fine aromas and good length on the palate.
Facing the sea in a natural amphitheatre of terraces, Bandol’s vineyard is sheltered by the Sainte‑Baume massif and planted mainly with Mourvèdre, the emblematic grape of the appellation, supported by Grenache and Cinsault. Expect structured, balanced reds with depth and spicy notes, alongside generous, gastronomic rosés with body and length.
One of the region’s earliest protected appellations, Cassis is a small coastal vineyard focused on white wines dominated by Marsanne. These whites are noted for their aromatic intensity, finesse and saline freshness, often pairing beautifully with local seafood and Mediterranean cuisine.
Further north, Châteauneuf‑du‑Pape is one of France’s historic AOC areas, with roots in Roman times and major development under the Avignon Popes in the 14th century. Explore the village and the ruins of the papal summer residence and taste powerful, complex reds – often from blends of several permitted grape varieties – shaped by its famous galet‑covered soils.
During booking, you can select a specific appellation or choose “Help me decide” and let us design the best route based on your tastes and the season. Whether you are a keen wine enthusiast or simply curious, your private guide adapts the visits and explanations to create a memorable, informative day in Provence’s vineyards.
Ideal for adult wine lovers, couples, and small groups (2–8 guests) staying in or around Aix-en-Provence who want a comfortable, private day discovering Provence wines without having to drive.
We carefully select the wineries visited during our wine tours, but the number of wines you’ll taste is set by each estate and varies by region, price and quality.
Please note: In France, snacks are usually not provided during wine tastings to preserve the purity of the wine's flavor. We recommend having a good breakfast or lunch beforehand.
In regards to the protection of the environment, we will no longer provide plastic bottles of water during our tours. You are kindly advised to bring your own. Water and refills are available at the wineries, museums and attractions visited.
