The Picnic with the Independent Winegrowers® 2026

The concept is simple and friendly: you bring your own picnic, and the winegrowers welcome you to their estates to share much more than just a meal. Visit of the estate, discovery of the cellars, tasting of their cuvées… but above all, genuine exchanges with passionate people who talk about their profession, their terroir, and their know-how.

A unique experience accessible to all

No formalities here: everyone chooses their estate according to their wishes — a château, an unusual cellar, or a vineyard with a view. Whether you come with family or friends, the atmosphere is simple, warm, and open to all.

Every year, hundreds of estates take part and offer, depending on the location, activities, walks through the vines, or more intimate moments centered around wine.

And with France Passion?

Many participating winegrowers are also members of France Passion. It’s a great opportunity to extend the experience by staying directly with them, in the heart of the vineyard, and to enjoy a special moment as close as possible to the terroir.

A perfect idea for a spring getaway combining encounters, gastronomy, and discovery… in the France Passion spirit.
