The Fascinating Weekend
From October 17th to 20th
Every year in autumn, the Condrieu Côte-Rôtie invites you on a journey through the vineyards to discover its exceptional wines! Discover the region’s treasures during the weekend, awaken your senses during events in the estates and meet passionate winegrowers. Many activities are organised during this wine-tourism weekend to make your tasting experience a real journey…
Now united under the banner “Vallée du Rhône, Condrieu – Côte-Rôtie”, awarded the “Vignobles & Découvertes” label by Atout France, the Vienne – Condrieu, Pilat Tourisme and Ardèche Grand Air destinations are joining forces once again this year to promote their appellations during the Fascinating Weekend.
On the program, from Vienne to Annonay via Ampuis, Chavanay, Malleval and Saint-Désirat, a host of gourmet and fun activities to savour this 11th edition, all centred around the wines of Condrieu, Côte-Rôtie, Saint-Joseph and Vitis Vienna.
Aperitif-jazz in the cellars, rides on a gyropod or city streetcar through the vineyards, hikes or bike rides, tasty brunches concocted by local restaurateurs and tasted at the wineries: discover the full program!
As for the inauguration evening, it will take place on Thursday October 17 at the Safari de Peaugres. Enjoy an evening walk through the park, with a preview of the “Lumière Sauvage” night show.
