Abbaye de Collonges - Photo Album

Day Five of our River Cruise took us to the Beaujolasis Region.

View of the The Saône River
 A tributary of the River Rhône, it joins the Rhône in Lyon.

Wine Tasting in the Beaujolis Region
Best described as a cottage industry - and yet France produces the largest volume of wine in the world.
The wine tasting experience was completely unlike anything you would experience in NZ or Australia.
