An Authentic Wine Journey - Taste and Discover
While countless wine festivals dot the French calendar, the Foire aux vins d’Uzès stands apart as an authentic and intimate celebration where serious vintners meet discerning enthusiasts and wine explorers. Since 2001, this carefully curated fair has become the premier showcase for the wine production of the Gard, featuring 54 meticulously selected vignerons gathering beneath the shade of ancient plane trees on Uzès’ historic Esplanade.
You’ll find yourself in intimate conversations with passionate winemakers whose families have tended these garrigue-kissed slopes for generations, tasting wines that tell the story of a terroir where Louis XIV once grew his ‘royal vines’ and playwright Jean Racine declared the local wines “the best in the kingdom.”
