Opportunities abound for sampling the region's wines and other
local produce. La Dolce Vita has developed close ties with two local
vineyards.
Discover our "wine and dine" special packages, combining
a 1 or 2 night stay at La Dolce Vita, a wine tasting visit to either
La Domaine La Parra or Château Guéry
and a delicious evening meal prepared at La Dolce Vita specifically
to accompany the wines from the vineyard of your choice.
We can arrange for personalized tours and wine tasting all year
round, at your convenience.
Contact us for more information and
pricing.
Le Domaine La Parra
Le Domaine La Parra in Azille offers a selection of traditionally
produced local wines and olive oil.
Sonia and Celian, the owners, pride themselves on the use of age-old
methods of cultivation and vinification and invite you to discover
their passion for a simple, rational form of agriculture that involves
hand pruning, natural irrigation, traditional vinification, manual
bottling, and direct marketing and distribution via local farmer's
markets.
During your visit to the vineyard, you can:
- Explore the La Parra vineyard and olive grove and observe the
seasonal work (pruning, harvesting, olive gathering).
- Visit the cellar and learn more about the vinification process.
- Taste a selection of wines and label your own bottles.
- Enjoy a carriage ride (in season).
Back at La Dolce Vita, we will prepare you a delicious evening
meal prepared specifically to accompany the Domaine Le Parra wine(s)
of your choice.
Chateau Guéry
The Guéry family (Antoine and his wife Maguy, their son
René-Henry and daughter-in-law Florence), are very much attached
to the Azille region which their ancestors have cultivated since
the beginning of the 17th century.
We invite you to discover Château Guéry and this remarkable
family of independent wine makers as part of a special package that
includes :
- two nights bed and breakfast at La Dolce Vita
- a wine tasting session at Château Guéry, with a
visit of the wine cellar
- a delicious evening meal prepared specifically to accompany
the Château Guéry wine(s) of your choosing.
At any time of the year, we can arrange a visit and tasting session
for you. Maguy or Florence Guéry will welcome you to their
air-conditioned cellar and treat you to an unforgettable wine-tasting
experience, a journey of the senses and new sensations in a friendly
and relaxed atmosphere.
