Vineyard. A father and a son run this winery together (that's appellation Côtes du Ventoux, cheaper than Côtes du Rhône but as nice). White, rosé and several reds (their red "Opus" is fantastic).

Domaine Les Goubert
235 Chemin des JardinièresMondays the local market is held in Tulette. It's a very small market, perfect for a bike ride in (30 min). Pick up the essentials, have a coffee and then back home for lunch. We often grab a roasted chicken for an easy meal at the house (though be careful, the smell right make you want to park on the side of the road and dig in.) A reminder that the markets all wind down around 12 or 1, so be sure to get there in time.

Sightseeing
Tuesdays the market is held in Vaison. This is our favorite market. It's a large turnout, many vendors, great for picking up fabrics, keepsakes, provencal linens, and other things, as well as food. A reminder that the markets all wind down around 12 or 1, so be sure to get there in time.
Vaison is an all-around must see. The Roman ruins are particularly known (and for a reason.) If you cross the river and walk up through the old castle, the views from the top (and along the small, windy roads) are unbeatable.
