Highlights
Unlike a traditional wine tasting on the French Riviera, this experience takes place at the very source of production on the peaceful island of Saint-Honorat. Guided by one of the Abbey's professional sommeliers, you'll taste three exceptional wines crafted by Cistercian monks using centuries-old winemaking techniques, all while surrounded by the vineyards where the grapes are grown. With round-trip ferry tickets included, free time to explore the island, and a maximum of just 10 guests, this intimate experience offers a rare opportunity to discover one of the Riviera's most authentic hidden gems. If you'd like to enjoy lunch at the island's renowned La Tonnelle restaurant, we can help reserve a table for you. Simply send us a message after booking (subject to availability). Important: Your round-trip ferry ticket is included. After the wine tasting, you're welcome to stay on the island for the rest of the day and return to Cannes later on any scheduled ferry.

About Cannes
Cannes is a Riviera resort on the Mediterranean, with a palm-lined seafront, a film festival, an old hilltop quarter and ferries to the Lérins islands.
Cannes curves around a sandy bay on the French Riviera, with a wide seafront boulevard, La Croisette, lined with palm trees and grand hotels. The Palais des Festivals, near its western end, hosts the international film festival each May, and film stars' handprints are set in the pavement outside. The old quarter of Le Suquet climbs a hill above the old port, with narrow lanes, a church and a museum in a medieval castle.
