Food and Wine in the Region
This lovely corner of France is famous for its healthy Mediterranean diet;
lots of fresh local vegetables, fruit and olive oil all washed down with large
amounts of red wine! During the spring & summer the market stalls are groaning
under the weight of; asparagus, strawberries, olives, honey, fish, aubergines,
apricots, peaches, cherries and cheese just to name a few items.
With all these delicious ingredients close to hand preparing some simple
meals at the Gîte is not only easy but a pleasure. There is a BBQ for you
to use. Should you wish, Sabine will be delighted to prepare you an evening meal. It goes without
saying that there is a variety of local restaurants close by to suit all budgets,
from simple local cafes to Michelin stared establishments.
Here you are in the heart of the Côtes du Rhône and the countryside
is full of wineries that are open to the public; to taste and to buy. Although,
widely known for their hearty reds the Rhone whites are a true pleasure waiting
to be uncorked. Santé.
