    Vineyard tour

    Posted by Steve Ballinger 15 August 2007

    Hire bicycles in Avignon, buy a baguette, a camembert and some tomatoes, and cycle off to the vineyards of Chateau Neuf-du-Papes. Vignerons are happy for you to taste their amazing wines and are all within a five-minute, increasingly-wobbly ride of each other. I drove back in the car the next day to buy a case of my favourite, at half the UK price.
