Cassis, Sunset & Wine Tasting

ÜBERBLICK

Watch an inspiring sunset over Cassis Bay as a prelude to a wine tasting and free time for dinner in the village of Cassis. Few sunsets are more memorable than the ones seen from atop the Cap Canaille as it’s sea cliffs are the highest in France. Their ochre and limestone colors are magnificent on their own; add the pyrotechnic hues of a sunset and the moment will be magical. Shortly after arriving in Cassis, you will indulge in a wine sampling at Domaine de la Ferme Blanche, a winery that has been in the same family since 1714. The sea and limestone soil heavily influence the terroir, which is ideal for producing the winery’s prevalent white blends and its signature red varietal made from mourvèdre grapes, one of the area’s dominant red grapes. Down in the old port of Cassis, you will have time to dine on your own.
