Châteaux and wine estates are prestigious addresses ideal for conventions and seminars. They are also festive places with which we can celebrate French gastronomy! Lovers of hilly landscapes and vineyards, we can only be fascinated by the business tourism offer and the transmission of value that a vineyard, a castle or an estate offers.
A seminar in the green under the sign of oenology promises to federate your teams with original activities that you will not see elsewhere: tastings, cellar visits, teambuildings, walks in the vineyards or role playing. The vineyards are a place for sharing, cultivating authenticity between tradition, innovation and human values. That’s why we have made this selection of wineries in Auvergne-RhĂ´ne-Alpes for your wine seminars!
