    Meet your english-speaking wine expert guide in front of our meeting point (centrally located close to the "Cours Mirabeau") in Aix en Provence. Your guide will drive you in a clean, comfortable & A/C minivan accommodating up to 8 people maximum. You will arrive half an hour later in the wine region of Côtes de Provence Sainte-Victoire, located at the foothills of the impressive Sainte-Victoire Mountain. Get a private visit at 2 wineries, family-owned and awarded estates. Taste some reds full of character & finess, aromatic or gastronomic rosés and lively whites (about 9 different wines in total). You will be back to Aix en Provence around 12.15pm to the same place where we met at the beginning of the tour. We select different types of wineries in order to offer you the opportunity to see different ways to work. We have developed partnerships allowing us to take you behind the scenes: from the winemaking & aging rooms to the bottling lines, you will see everything! Your guide will also explain you about the soil, the climate, the grape varieties, the famous "terroir" but also the picking, pruning, green harvesting and many other subjects in a relaxed and educational way.
