Guest reviews for this experience
A beautiful gift
My colleagues have spoiled me. VINOTRIP seems to be well known here and well received. That's a sign for us. We were well received and no mistakes were made. Bravo for this organization
Thuerry L.
stay in the hermitage
We made a wonderful discovery, and everyone involved in our stay was super friendly and passionate. Beautiful encounters, beautiful landscapes and beautiful wines. As for the unnamed wine at the restaurant Le Quai, they're young waiters, so just ask if he doesn't say it himself... no harm done. The meal was very good and so was Vineum. Thanks Vinotrip
Émilie J.
Excellent stay in Tain-l'Hermitage
Many thanks to the Vinotrip team for organizing our stay in the Rhône Valley. Everything was perfect! The gîte at the Denis farm, with Jean-Stéphane's great tips, the restaurants, all excellent, and of course the cellar visits and wine discoveries. We recommend Vinotrip and look forward to discovering a new region with them. Thierry and Sandra

A memorable stay
We went as a couple and had a pleasant stay. The organization was impeccable. All the people we met (accommodation, restaurateurs, winegrowers, chocolate city) were attentive to our needs. We didn't know VINOTRIP but we recommend it.

Very nice stay
We've just had an excellent stay. Very well organized, we were welcomed everywhere by people who are passionate about their region and their profession. The accommodation at the Denis farm was perfect, we were cocooned and guided to make this stay a very very pleasant moment. Highly recommended!

Hermitage Weekend Stay
A very pleasant stay, with a very warm welcome in all the establishments. The restaurants were of excellent quality, as were the cellars for tastings with different specificities to give us a range of different wines. A very pleasant stay.

Very pleasant stay
Very pleasant stay We were very well received at Le Clos des Ceintres in Cheminas - we would recommend it without any problem. The restaurants we chose were of very high quality. The wineries for the tastings gave us a warm welcome. All in all, it was a great way to discover the wines of the Rhone Valley region and to get away from it all for a long weekend.

Gourmet break from October 5 to 7, 2023
Sublime stay organized by vinotrip. Everything was perfect, and we were lucky with the weather (28°, sunny). Many thanks to the people who welcomed us and allowed us to discover the richness of the vineyard through tastings and visits to the terroir with great kindness and professionalism. Quality restaurants: Le Farfadet, Le Quai, Vineum. We enjoyed both the food and the wines. Good e-mail communication from Vinotrip with a very friendly consultant. Annick Philippe Chevalerias
Jordan C.
We recommend it!
Superb stay with friends! We didn't know anything about wine, but we were able to learn how to taste wine at the Chapoutier estate, which also gave us a lot of information about wine culture. The restaurants selected by Vinotrip were all very good and the accommodation at Château de Lemps went very well, the hosts are extremely kind.
Gabriel G.
Very pleasant stay
Very pleasant stay, very good welcome everywhere except the gastro which disappointed us enormously.

Excellent tasting holiday
Very well organized by Vinotrip, we were very well received by Isabelle at Château de Lemps in the hills above Tain-l'Hermitage. Very good tastings, good meals and the gastronomic stopover in Valence at La Cachette was remarkable.
Karine H.
EXCELLENT STAY
We had an excellent stay in this superb region. A well-organized stay that allowed us to visit as well as taste some of the region's specialties and wines. The welcome at the Château de Lemps for 2 nights was perfect, simple and very friendly, many thanks to our hosts. A great experience!
Stephane V.
A gourmet and very pleasant stay
The region is magnificent, and our stay was sublime. Olivier and his wife are simple, kind, considerate people with good advice, humor and quality products (fruit juices, jams, wines). The room is spacious and comfortable, especially the bedding. A real pleasure to stay with. As for the choice of restaurants, once again everything was perfect. Quality dishes, served in reasonable quantities by very pleasant staff and always well accompanied by wine. The visit to the Clairmont winery was very rewarding, with Barbara the winemaker smiling and taking her time, and her colleague offering us a personalized tasting. Another good time. We'll be delighted to repeat the vinotrip experience.
Florine B.
VERY GOOD
A very high quality stay, a wonderful welcome at the Denis farm, with a host keen to make the stay as pleasant as possible. The restaurants gave us the opportunity to discover some excellent cuisine. The tour of the Ville Rouge was a pleasure, and we could feel the professionalism! Organized in advance, we had an excellent stay.
Séverine M.
3 fantastic days!
We spent 3 fantastic days! The accommodation at Mr and Mrs Dumaine's was top-notch, with a visit to the vineyard to boot... The reception in each of the restaurants was of the highest quality, as were the meals.... The visit to the Ville Rouge was very interesting, and the owner was very enthusiastic! In short, a stay to be recommended and, of course, to be repeated in another region.
Martine B.
Very good
Our three-day stay went perfectly. Thank you for the good organization upstream. +++
Frederick M.
Very good
Very good stay, very nice tasting especially at Domaine de la Ville Rouge where we were received like princes with explanations on their method of work, excellent cellar, I will return for new purchase. Restaurant : Le FARFADET and le QUAI we were delighted by their service and friendliness. However, I'd like to point out that at the JABOULET Ainé restaurant, by way of a gourmet meal, we were treated to a plate of charcuterie... which explains the 4 stars. Hotels: we stayed at Château de LEMPS, a magnificent site with period furnishings. The owners are very welcoming, with a wealth of culture and history. I would have spent hours chatting with them, thank you. And thanks also to VINOTRIP
Philippe B.
Great weekend!
Very well organized Although the villages on offer don't have many places to visit, the organization, restaurants and accommodation are perfect. Great weekend!
Ludovic G.
Excellent stay
Excellent stay. Atypical accommodation at the château de Lemps, but very welcoming, excellent tasting at the Tain cellar and also at the Clairmont cellar, and the Vineum and Farfadet restaurants were also very good. In short, perfect organization.
Denis R.
Perfect
We spent 3 extraordinary days: accommodation at the ferme des dénis with a very warm welcome in a very friendly setting. The two visits to the Cave de Tain and particularly to the Domaine La Ville Rouge in Mercurol were very instructive and enjoyable, thanks to the availability and kindness of our hosts. As for the 3 restaurants, Le Farfadet, Le Vineum and Le Quai, we were expected, welcomed and delighted by both the food and the wines on offer. One small drawback: we also enjoyed a gourmet restaurant: Le Flaveurs in Valence: the food was excellent (bravo to the chef), but the welcome was disappointing and the service very long, especially as the air-conditioning was faulty. In short, Vinotrip's organization was of the highest quality. We recommend this service.
Francois M.
Perfect!
A great stay! Lodging at the Denis farm, extraordinary and very friendly hosts, the restaurants were also very good (a little downside for the quay, where we had to "claim" our glasses of wine at each course), the vineum just exceptional. The tastings and tours were brilliant, with a special mention for the Ville Rouge in Mercurol for the welcome, the tour and all the explanations, we had a great time. We'll do it again!
Christiane C.
Excellent Hermitage stay
Excellent stay with a special mention for the Château de Lemps where we stayed. It was surprising and atypical, a building steeped in history, with an excellent welcome from Chantal and Paul, who are charming and make you taste local products.
Stéphane D.
Perfect
Perfect weekend, we stayed at the Ferme des Denis because it was no longer available on our dates but we don't regret it, the owners were very nice, as for the visits and tastings again it was very good even if some wines were not to our taste....the restaurants thank you Vinotrip because we enjoyed the 3 restaurants we went to ...Le Quai, le Vineum and Le Farfadet are really 3 addresses to remember in Tain and Tournon and to finish we loved the places they are two very beautiful towns surrounded by vineyards separated by the Rhone. Thank you, my husband was delighted with his Christmas present.

Great stay. Charming welcome at the Croix du Verre estate and lovely large room. Tour of the estate and superb wine tasting. Very nice tasting at Domaine de la Ville Rouge. Very pleasant restaurants. Highly recommended meal at the Michelin-starred restaurant in Valence. A dream three days, two nights.
Christian L.
Great!
As a wine lover, this stay was offered to me by my colleagues on my retirement. Maryline and Olivier DUMAINE welcome you to their wine estate and respond to your wishes with unparalleled kindness and availability. The tasting at the Tain cellar with Bénédicte (Terre de SYRAH) went wonderfully well. Competent, pleasant, smiling and totally at ease in her role, she didn't hesitate to give a little more of her time to answer our questions. As for the restaurants, the meals were excellent, the welcome perfect and the kindness of the staff remarkable. The quality of Le Farfadet in Tournon is also noteworthy, with its many "Guide du Routard" recommendations well deserved.
Yannick O.
PERFECT
A great weekend, super organized, wine tastings, our hosts, restaurants everything was perfect, very relaxing, we will do it again without hesitation.

We had a great stay. Everything was perfect, the bed and breakfast, the restaurants. We were very well received and will recommend your site. It's a great idea for a gift. Our only regret was the weather - we went at the beginning of October. We would have loved to walk through the vineyards and enjoy the views of the Rhône.
Sylvie R.
Hermitage
Our children gave us this trip for Christmas. We enjoyed everything: the stay with winemaker Olivier Dumaine, the visit to the two wineries and, above all, the restaurants. Especially since the "Michel Chabran gastronomic restaurant" option had been added. Another restaurant particularly caught our eye. It was "côté jardin" in Mauves. It's run by a very friendly young couple, and the food is very good. We were greeted warmly everywhere we went. Site to recommend
Elisabeth G.
Excellent stay
A very warm welcome to the Croix du Verre estate. We enjoyed talking to Olivier and Maryline. They talk about their vineyards and wines with passion. The room was very quiet and clean, and the breakfast copious and varied, with a tasting of the house apricot juice. We really enjoyed the visit (and the wines) of the Domaine de la croix du Verre. The owner's visit and tasting of the Ville Rouge was interesting because of the specificity of their culture (biodynamic). It was very instructive for us in terms of this type of cultivation, with which we were unfamiliar. We also enjoyed the "Le Quai" and especially the "Vinéum" restaurants we visited. The food and wine pairings were of excellent quality. The Sunday restaurant did not seem as good in terms of quality and interest in relation to the weekend's theme, perhaps because we were full or because there was no wine and food pairing. Good organization by Vinotrip, the roadmap is well done and all reservations were made. What's more, we didn't feel any difference in our treatment in the restaurants between us and the other customers. We were very well placed.

May 27 to 29, 2019
First, a warm welcome at Domaine de la croix du verre. Olivier talks passionately about his terroir and his wines. Maryline welcomes us to her high-quality guest rooms. We were in the Marsanne, where blue and white create an atmosphere of calm and rest. Quiet at night, in the morning, traditional breakfast with home-grown produce. Try the apricot juice, excellent. The discovery of vintages, whether at the domaine de la croix du verre, where after the tasting, Olivier took us into his vineyards, or at the ville rouge where a charming young student spoke to us passionately about grape varieties and wines after an instructive tour of the cellars. The restaurants we chose were of good quality and made us feel very welcome. We were expected at all 3 of them, all very different, but all offering quality products (le Quai, on the banks of the Rhone, Vinéum and its excellent cuisine, le Farfadet, traditional cuisine and a family atmosphere). A visit to the Valrhona chocolate factory, a stroll through the vineyards to the Tain chapel and a visit to the palais du facteur Cheval rounded off this stay offered by our colleagues. Vinotrip's organization was excellent, and the itinerary well laid out. We recommend this trip.
Ferrenbach P.
Weekend in Hermitage country
A warm welcome to Château de Lemps from our warm and attentive hosts. What a beautiful residence, calm and timeless. A delicious meal in a friendly atmosphere. Discover the wines of the northern valley, with a wide choice of restaurants. Special mention for Vineum in Tain. And it's better to visit the small wineries than the big cooperatives where it's a bit like a factory.
Lionel D.
A Wonderful Stay
An excellent trip, very well organized by Vinotrip. We received a warm welcome at Domaine de La Croix du Verre, with a delightful tour and tasting at the estate. The owners are so friendly—it really felt like home (a place we won’t forget if we ever return to the region). Vinotrip did an excellent job organizing the itinerary, featuring high-quality restaurants and very interesting tours. A little unexpected bonus: we were able to attend the Harvest Festival on Sunday afternoon in Tain-l’Hermitage after a wonderful lunch on the terrace. The only slight downside: the choice of Michel Chabran’s Michelin-starred restaurant, which was a real disappointment due to the ultra-traditional nature of the meal—it wasn’t particularly exceptional compared to his brasserie in Tain, where we had dinner on Saturday night, which was far more surprising from a gastronomic standpoint. The sommelier at his Michelin-starred restaurant, however, was perfect and introduced us to a completely unknown but very good regional wine that paired perfectly with our meal... A trip to be repeated without hesitation and highly recommended

Vinotrip Drôme Stay
Excellent welcome from all partners - Quality program with very well-chosen restaurants that know how to sell the region. Impeccable catering. One regret, however: a visit to a winery on the last morning is missing. We liked it and recommend this type of package.

weekend with a hermitage winemaker
very good weekend in LARNAGE a super and impeccable gite with very welcoming people and an excellent breakfast. for the meals in the restaurants excellent accompaniment food and wine and good quality. Chez Michel CHABRAN was sublime.
Claude H.
Perfect!
We spent a very pleasant weekend at Château de Lemps with our three children. The gîte is typical: an old castle with its vestiges and attentive hosts. The children were delighted to discover the coat of arms, the history of the place and the park. We were completely satisfied with both the larger Tain winery and the smaller Clairmont one. The welcome was personalized, the people we spoke to were very competent, and the products were humm! The restaurants we chose were really very good: a top-of-the-range one with quality food and wine pairings, and a simpler one on Sundays that was just as pleasant, with local produce. In short, it's a faultless experience, bravo for these quality services, we validate and recommend! Many thanks to the entire VINOTRIP team, both for their advice and personalized quotations in advance, and for the stay itself!

Un Régal
Our accommodation was the Chateau de Lemps. Nicole and Paul du Tremolet are warm hosts, and the home-cooked meals are delicious. Oenologist Marie José Faure is extraordinary. Domaine de la Ville Rouge produces wonderful wines, and Audrey Girard gives fantastic explanations of the evolution of the estate, its dynamic organic culture and its wines. The restaurant Le Cerisier in Tournon is absolutely to be recommended. The quality and finesse of the dishes are extraordinary. Chabran is to be commended. We were delighted by the menu's surprising combinations. The Tournesol restaurant in Tournon is also a great stopover. In short, we were delighted and very happy with our stay.
