Because they do not represent a single producer, they are able to find the best products and really focus on great wine. And the ambiance in the cave was incredible.

We had an incredible wine tasting at Les Caves St. Charles on a recent visit to…read moreChâteauneuf-du-Pape. The area has such a rich wine growing history with so many different wine styles to sample. We couldn't believe that Les Caves offers FREE 60-minute wine tastings, and scheduling could not be easier on Les Caves' user-friendly website. We arrived and were greeted by a lovely, knowledgeable woman who enthusiastically guided us downstairs into an intimate, private tasting room. Les Caves has several private tasting rooms, each below ground and designed as mini caves. For an hour our host guided us through six different local wines, each distinctive in style. At the conclusion, we were free to exit Les Caves owing nothing. Of course, we bought a mixed case of fantastic wine that can't be purchased in the U.S. Les Caves was a highlight of our visit to this legendary wine growing region.

The wine here is good and well worth a try. They quickly sell out of their white Châteauneuf du Pape because the locals can't get enough. The reds are nice expressions of the local terroir. Because anyone can pop in, this can be a problem (as well as a benefit). They do not have enough staff (1 person) to adequately greet newcomers while serving those who are already tasting. That said, the wines are very good and the location is convenient to the heart of the village.

There is a free tasting afterward. I felt like the guide didn't really listen to what we wanted in a wine as the wine she served tasted completely different than what I asked for. We were prepared to buy several bottles of wine but didn't find anything we truly loved. The guide was initially very friendly and of course spoke English but overall the experience was disappointing.

We did not get a tour of the winery because the place was busy with harvesting but still had a wonderful time. David was such a great host and provided us with great stories about the generation of wine making in his family. David was friendly and very hilarious. The red wines were very intense, complex, and probably one of the better reds that I've tasted in the area. This is a must visit when you're wine tasting.

Came here with our wine guide. It's got the oldest wine cave in the region. It's interesting to see…read morehow wine was made using the storage here. There were a couple of small windows you can peek into and see the large vats of wine fermenting. The tasting room was just remodeled last year. It's very modern, but I feel like it loses some of its old world charm because of how modern it is. Guess the times have to keep moving on. When you're here, be sure to take a look at the chateau where the winemaker lives. It's exactly what you'd imagine a winery chateau would look like. It also has some terrific views of the grounds.

We arrived on time and were immediately taken into the heart of this historic winery. Apparently it was started by the area leader who also initiated the entire wine region system of France. Chateau neuf de pape is the first recognized region in all of France so the tour took on some meaning for us knowing this. Fortia bottles their own wine, 5 varieties all red and two whites. We saw their historic aging and production areas, the guide gave meaningful information and responded to questions well. The oak casks are fascinating as are the stacks of bottles aging in the cellar. Apparently they build and destroy the vast casks on-site as they are so huge and cost 40k euro a piece! Fascinating. The tasting followed and was as smooth as the wine. We particularly enjoyed the traditional reds, full of flavor from the oak casks. The guide knew the region well and explained the Rhone river valley and it's relation to the winery. We bought a number of bottles, very pleased with the day.
