I just went to buy wine. But the place has sweeping views over the bay on the one side and the Esterel national park on the other. In that sense, this place is unique. It is one of many working wineries producing excellent Roses, Whites and reds in this region. Quintessentially French and better then going to a supermarket to buy winds
