Discover the charm of southern Beaujolais, often called the "Tuscany of France," with its rolling hills and picturesque hilltop villages made of golden stone. Just north of Lyon, this lush, hilly region is known for its famed Beaujolais Nouveau and golden-stone architecture.
Join our driver-guide for a cultural and gourmet adventure, including an introduction to wine and a tasting session with a local winemaker.
Travel through scenic landscapes where villages glow in warm golden stones. Enjoy a wine-tasting session amid the vineyards, savoring two distinct wines paired with a local pastry, while learning about the “terroir” that makes each wine unique.
Visit Oingt, a 12th-century village listed as one of France’s Most Beautiful Villages, and stroll its medieval streets. End your tour at a family-owned winery where the friendly winemaker shares his craft and offers a tasting with a traditional Lyon “mâchon” of local cold meats and cheeses.

5.00We had a great time and François was very informative. We tasted six wines. The first two we tasted at a beautiful stop on a hill that surrounded many vineyards. Then we stopped by a family run winery of ten generations and tasted four wines: two reds, one rosé and one white. Plus we had bites sizes of local cheeses and meets. We also made a stop by the local village. I highly recommend this tour.
Interesting and fun wine tour outside of Lyon!
