“One hour north of our Lyon hotel is this wine theme park. I had no clue what to expect as this may be the only one of its kind. Its rather expensive to enter at 22E but includes a wine tasting of their Beaujolais. There are many, unique exhibits -- 3-D, or animated videos in comfortable settings, eg, Noah's Ark, history of wine growing in the area, types of Beaujolais, vineyard implements and wine-making tools and fermentation process.”
