Sure, popping open a good bottle at home or enjoying a glass over dinner is always a treat. But letโ€™s be honest โ€” what really makes a tasting unforgettable is everything around it: the setting, the company, those precious moments that feel like youโ€™ve hit pause on real life. Thatโ€™s when wine becomes more than just a drink โ€” it becomes an experience.

Now, picture this: a sun-drenched stroll through the vineyards, an afternoon surrounded by nature, glass in hand. Sounds pretty memorable, right?

At Xavier Vignon, in the heart of the Rhรดne Valley, weโ€™ve crafted a series of wine tourism experiences that let you discover our wines from an entirely new angle.

Whether youโ€™re just passing through or youโ€™re a full-fledged wine enthusiast on the hunt for your next great story, our experiences are here to make sure your visit is anything but ordinary.

Craving a little escape from the daily grind? Our self-guided picnic experience is just the ticket. Itโ€™s the perfect way to slow down, soak in the scenery, and enjoy some quality time with your favourite people โ€” all at your own pace.

With a gourmet picnic basket in hand, youโ€™re free to wander through our vineyards, following a QR code-guided trail as you go. The basket, designed for two, comes packed with fine local delicacies, a bottle of our Petit Xavier, and of course, two glasses and a Xavier Vignon corkscrew โ€” yours to keep as a souvenir of the day.

Every Thursday in June and September, we invite you to step out of the everyday and into something a little more magical. As the sun sets gently over the hills of the Rhรดne Valley, settle in for an open-air tasting right in the heart of the vineyards.

Youโ€™ll sample 10 of our Xavier Vignon wines, perfectly paired with a platter of charcuterie and cheese โ€” because whatโ€™s great wine without great company and a few delicious bites?

Itโ€™s a relaxed, feel-good evening, made for sharing, discovering, and soaking up the beauty of the very vines that give life to our wines.

What if you took a moment to really feel your wine? Guided by sophrologist Krystel Harre, this gentle, sensory tasting session invites you to tune into your senses and explore your emotions as you sip.

Set right among the vines, youโ€™ll discover a fresh perspective on wine, one that goes beyond taste to engage sight, smell, touch โ€” and a bit of inner calm. Itโ€™s a blissful escape from the everyday, topped off with a complimentary aperitif to round off the experience.

For us, wine is about so much more than whatโ€™s in the glass. Itโ€™s about place, connection, and emotion. Itโ€™s the sunlight filtering through the vines, the laughter shared between friends, the conversation that lingers long after the last sip.

With these experiences, we simply wanted to open the doors to our world โ€” to let you discover our wines where they truly come to life, and maybe even see them from a whole new perspective.

So, are you ready for an adventure in the heart of our vineyards?
