Program & Itinerary
Discover the Wines of Provence near Aix-en-Provence
Surrounding Aix-en-Provence, vineyards stretch between mountains and the Mediterranean Sea within the Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence appellation, one of Provence’s largest wine regions. Benefiting from nearly 3,000 hours of sunshine each year and the cooling influence of the mistral wind, the region produces fresh, expressive wines known for balance and elegance.
Rosé wines dominate production, accompanied by structured reds and aromatic whites crafted from grape varieties such as Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, and Rolle (Vermentino).
A Relaxed Provençal Wine Experience
This half-day small-group tour focuses on discovery rather than technical tasting. Travel through olive groves, vineyards, and traditional Provençal countryside to visit selected wineries where producers share their passion and explain local winemaking traditions.
Guided tastings introduce the freshness and elegance typical of Provence wines while highlighting how climate, terroir, and lifestyle influence production.
Small-Group Comfort
Limited to a maximum of eight guests, the experience offers a relaxed and personal atmosphere. Travel takes place in a premium air-conditioned Mercedes minivan operated by Ophorus, specialists in small-group tours across France since 2005.
