Le château et le vin

I'm a little late posting this, but better late than never! Last weekend was busy! After spending Saturday at Arles, on Sunday a group of us headed out to Petruis to visit the Château Val Joanis (shout out to Gabby for organizing everything!). The Château Val Joanis has acres of vineyards, a beautiful garden, and an impressive wine selection. For just three euros, we got to explore the gardens and take part in a wine tasting!


We started in the gardens, which were absolutely stunning. Like something out of a fairy tale. People actually come from all over the world to get married here. I took too many pictures to ever put them all up on here, but here are a few of my favorites (the rest will be on Facebook eventually):





Afterwards, we had our group wine tasting. We got to try a rosé, a white, and a red. I liked the rosé best, but the white was quite good too. A little citrusy and a little sweet.



We had a little time between the end of the tasting and our bus, so of course, we went to a bakery! Then we found a little park on the canal and enjoyed the last sunshine of the weekend. A lovely Sunday afternoon!
