France - Chablis to the Pont du Gard

Survol des vignobles bourguignons de Chablis, de l'abbaye de Fontenay, de Lyon, puis des gorges de l'Ardèche et enfin du Pont du Gard.

This journey begins at the vineyards around the town of Chablis, one of the best known names in French wine. Ten miles to the east is the Chateau de Tanlay, one of the finest examples of renaissance architecture in the Burgundy region. Our journey then heads south to one of the oldest and most complete Cistercian monasteries in Europe, Fontenay Abbey, once home to over 300 monks.
