Overview

Guidekin summary

A half day in the southern Beaujolais where the golden limestone villages catch the light, with a local guide, an air conditioned vehicle from Lyon and measured tastings of the region's fruity reds.

From the guide

Called the french Tuscany, the south of the Beaujolais is warm with its golden stone which shines in the sun. This limestone, full of iron oxide reflects light in the heart of the green vineyards. Come and taste a voluptuous and fruity wine !

Itinerary

Oingt Stop 1
You will start the tour with a stop in the middle of the Golden stones area. We will explain the origin and the typology of this vineyard and introduce you to this voluptuous and fruity wine during a tasting of white and red.
2h
Le Bois-d'Oingt Stop 2
After crossing lovely villages surrounded by vines, you will visit a local wine estate. You will immediately be immersed in the friendly atmosphere of Beaujolais when you will meet the producer. You will taste several red wines but also white and maybe some rosés. This is a good introduction to Beaujolais wines, that, we hope, will give you the desire to come back and taste more !
