About the event
Bonjourrrrr !
For the month of June, we're listening to what many of you said on the recent expats survey and changing it up for our monthly events! To take advantage of the beautiful region and fantastic wines, we're organizing a wine tasting & picnic outing!
Because where there's wine, there's delight .
So why not learn how delight is made in the charming chateau of Saint Jean lez Durance, located right next to Les Vannades?
Here's the agenda: We will first visit Château Saint Jean lez Durance and get a personal tour of their caves, stock areas and machines used to make wine, along with historical explanations.
We end it with wine tasting (up to 3 different types of wine in order to keep the group within time) at the château itself.
Next, head on to Les Vannades for a BYOP (Bring Your Own Picnic) picnic where we get to relax and mingle.
!!! (LIMITED SEATING) The chateau can only take up to 15 people at a time for the tour & tasting. Most people are now available for 5 PM, hence the group at 4 PM is cancelled.
TIMINGS:
Wine Tasting Group: 5 PM sharp! Please try to reach 10 minutes earlier if possible.
The chateaux closes at 6:30 pm so we really need to be out by that time.
For others who can't make it to the wine tasting, please join us for the picnic later.
Cost: FREE. Please remember to bring your own picnic. You will be able to buy the wines that we taste at the château, so feel free to pay by cash or card once there.
Please RSVP ASAP so that we can make sure to reserve the tasting experience at the earliest possible date. You will HAVE to let us know which time you'd be prefer to come.
You can message me, Joke or email expatsinandaroundmanosque@gmail.comnto confirm your attendance or for any questions.
Tour will include English translation.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
Love, Kruti & Joke
