Based in the heart of the region, Vinextenso organizes tailor-made wine tours that reveal the true character of Beaujolais: its landscapes, its winemakers, and its expressive wines. Whether you're a group of friends, an international team, or a couple seeking authenticity, we design wine tours that combine discovery, pleasure, and conviviality.
Discover the Beaujolais Wine Region
Just a short drive from Lyon, the Beaujolais region offers a rich mosaic of vineyards, charming villages, and centuries-old estates. Known worldwide for its Gamay-based wines, Beaujolais surprises visitors with its diversity — from light and fruity reds to complex Crus such as Morgon, Brouilly, and Côte de Brouilly.
Vinextenso invites you to explore this region through a fully personalized experience, designed with care and passion by our local team.
During your wine tour in Beaujolais with Vinextenso, you will:
- Visit carefully selected wine estates, including our trusted partners such as Château Thivin in Odenas and Château de Lachassagne, both renowned for their history, quality wines, and warm hospitality.
- Enjoy guided cellar tours, where you’ll walk through centuries-old vat rooms, barrel cellars, and vinification spaces, while learning about the winemaking process and the Beaujolais terroir.
- Participate in commented wine tastings, led by wine experts or the winemakers themselves. You’ll learn how to taste, describe, and understand wines using all five senses.
- Savour local food and wine pairings, ranging from traditional mâchons (local charcuterie-based meals) to elegant lunch or dinner experiences at the estate or in nearby gourmet restaurants.
- Immerse yourself in vineyard life, with optional hands-on activities such as wine blending workshops, seasonal grape harvesting, or playful challenges — ideal for corporate or incentive events.
A Tour Format Adapted to All Groups
Vinextenso’s wine tours are entirely flexible and designed around your needs. Whether you're a group of 4 or 40, we ensure every detail is adapted to your expectations, your schedule, and your level of wine knowledge.
We offer:
- Private wine tours for couples, families, or small groups looking for a calm and exclusive discovery of Beaujolais wines.
