Route des Vins - Le Piémont du Ventoux
Tourist service in Carpentras :
Take the piedmont road - it is the royal road, the one followed by pilgrims in the Middle Ages, botanists from the Enlightenment, and the athletes of today. A magnificent road to a mountain described and painted countless times, the emblematic profile which towers over a sea of vineyards.
The wine road winds through the vineyards in the direction of Caromb, for a first stop at Saint Marc Cellar, which displays a remarkable collection of old implements. A great discovery path through the village gives a good overall view of what's in store - the villages of Modène, St Pierre-de-Vassols, Crillon-le-Brave, a string of villages which have remained authentice and retained all their charm and character. Then, onto Bedoin, the traditional departure point for outings into the southern folds of the Giant of Provence, majestic Mont Ventoux.
