GOLDEN STONES
Beaujolais
Black Gamay terroir
The southern part of Beaujolais known as Golden Stones is often compared to Tuscany : scenic roads, hills covered with vineyards, quaint old villages built with local vibrant orange stones, & good products like wine & goat cheese
Only 30 min away from Lyon, this excursion has only one purpose : to enjoy the laziness of the French countryside
Terroir (soil) & savoir-faire (know-how) take the place of honor in a tour designed to understand that there is more than Beaujolais Nouveau
From your hotel, your guide & your driver will take you to Beaujolais on a road dotted with medieval villages & castles : Chatillon d’Azergues, Chessy les Mines, Bagnols…
You will walk in the vineyards, understand why the local stones are yellow or orange, & have the opportunity to connect with a passionate winemaker whose dedication to wine has been shared in the same family for sometimes 800 years
Stroll in the charming village of Oingt, listed as one of the “Plus Beaux Villages de France”, i.e. one of the Most Beautiful Villages of France
Wine tasting of 5 local wines includings AOC Beaujolais, sparkling crémant de Bourgogne, rosé, dry & sweet white wines
