DISCOVER NORTHERN COTES DU RHONE : VIENNE, AMPUIS, CONDRIEU, CHAVANAY

Stop in Vienne to enjoy a spectacular view on the 2000 year’s old roman theatre and the stunning panorama on the Rhone Valley. With your guide, learn about the "terroir" and the different grapes characteristics of the Northern Cotes du Rhone region.

Cross Ampuis town, the world capital of Syrah and visit "Cote Rotie" vineyards literally "roasted hillside". Drive on the precipitous vertigo inducing terraced slopes of "Cote Brune" and "Cote Blonde" and appreciate the 30 to 60 degree angles hills bathed in sun facing the beautiful Rhône River. Stop to take pictures and to imagine the work of vine-growers in this unique impressive landscape.
