Our day with Celine touring three vineyards near Avignon was a highlight of our trip. She is delightful and comfortable to be with, yet serious about teaching you to appreciate the region's wines. Not only did we learn a lot, we tasted excellent wines, saw family-run businesses, and got a feel for the Provencal countryside. Lunch in a real local restaurant in the beautiful hilltop village of Gigondas was special.

Our group of six people joined Jean Marc and his lovely wife, Alice, for an incredible day of cooking, eating, and immersion into Provencal cuisine. They are the consummate hosts. And, Jean Marc is a gifted chef and, more importantly, gifted teacher. From coffee and cookies just out of the oven, to the tour of the local Farmers' Co-op, to the preparation of each course, to tips on spices, herbs, meal presentation, feasting (with wine pairings for each course), and conversation, this was a day that we will all remember. It was THE HIGHLIGHT of our two weeks in France!

I've been reading about Les Pastras for several years, and this year I decided the truffle hunt would be a priority for our trip. It was a pleasure to listen to Johann speak so proudly about his family's land and heritage. He welcomed us warmly, gave us a few ground-rules about the experience, and then told us about the process of finding truffles, how to spot a likely place, and the business of raising "truffles trees." The fact that Johann is entertaining and knowledgeable plus fluent in English made the tour even more enjoyable. Jean-Marc arrived with the dogs. I had read about the fancy Italian breed that is often used for truffle hunting, but these dogs were not what I expected. Éclair was a scruffy, short ball of fur and Mirabelle seemed to be a lab-shepherd-? mixed breed. Johann explained the process of training the dogs and noted that any breed could be trained to find truffles. We greeted the dogs, but when it was time to go to work, we had to let them focus. We had walked to the stand of trees where we hoped to find truffles, Éclair sniffed out the truffles, Mirabelle started the digging, and then we got to get the truffle out of the soil. We were taught how to notice the difference in quality. One truffle was softer than the others and another had less aroma than the others. After we found 6 or so truffles, we walked around the family land and were introduced to the area's wild herbs, the beehives, and the fruit and olive trees. Then on to the summer kitchen and getting to eat the fruit of our hunt. Johann talked about preparation, storage, and serving truffles. We had Champagne and ate truffles on butter, on cheese, with oil, and in ice cream. The entire experience was a pleasure.
