It was a very pleasant day in Provence. The day started with our prompt pick-up in vielle ville part of Antibes. Peter was our guide for the day, and provided an interesting and fact filled conversation about the region as we drove the approximately 60 minutes to the first winery. There were 3 wineries on the itinerary for the day. The first was a very old winery estate where they have discovered ruins of an ancient Roman winery on the grounds. The second winery as an exquisite estate that was built within the last 30-40 year but the architecture makes it look like it has been there much, much longer. The last winery stop was a little more modern looking tasting room, but just as charming as the others. Along the way, Peter arranged for lunch at a wonderful cafe in the village square of the quaint town of Les Arcs.
Peter hosted all of our wine tastings personally and was great at explaining the wines were were drinking. We are not wine novices, so it was truly pleasant to have Peter to discuss the subtle differences in the wines. This was our second private wine tour with Peter and Azur Wine Tours (previous was OCT 2022). We will not hesitate to book another tour upon our next return to Cote D'Azur.
