Finishing up in the Cote du Rhone

Friday morning the first of our visitors arrived.  M and J1 flew over from London and arrived shortly before lunchtime.  We gave them a couple of minutes to settle in, then marched them up the hill towards Seguret for lunch. 
As I may have mentioned, Seguret is the next village over and just a few kilometres away (uphill).  It is very beautiful and about the same size as Sablet.
It is just incredibly hot in the middle of the day, and the very pleasant 3 - 4 km was hot and sweaty worked.  We arrived at La Table du Comtat at the top of Seguret dripping and looking forward to our lunch.  As with our previous lunch there, we weren't disappointed.  Fantastic food in beautiful surroundings. 
A wander back through the vineyards and we were in Sablet.  R and S arrived from London a little later - great to see them.
A few hours later headed to Le Grand Pres in Roaix for dinner - my first Michelin-starred restaurant.  An amazing meal.  Multiple fantastic amuse-bouche,  a salmon entree, a great fish main, a very good cheese course and a mind-blowing desert with multiple raspberry-based concoctions.  And very good service.  Very highly recommended. 
M ferried us there in two trips, as we couldn't all fit in one car and she wasn't up for drinking - very nice of her!
The next morning we packed and left Sablet, stopping in Chateauneuf du Papes - a town at the centre of a famous wine region of the same name.  A cute little town with many places to try (and buy) the local wines. 
Then headed on towards St Antonin-du-Var.
