Drome in France to explore

A land of abundance, Drôme offers its most delicious charms in abundance. Caillette de Chabeuil, ravioles and pogne from Romans, olive oil from Nyons, and picodon, truffles or lavender. Its riches diversity and quality make it a true land of Cocagne!

Drôme, a land of delicacies

Drôme can be discovered in sweet steps. From the incomparable nougat of Montélimar (cooked in a cauldron with its caramelised almonds!) to Romans round and generous pogne or the golden lavender honeys. Without forgetting the city of Valrhona, an all-chocolate experience!

Landscapes in Drôme Provençale

To walk through the harmonious geometry of the landscapes of Drôme Provençale is a real favourite! What a pleasure to be intoxicated by summer perfumes following the blue horizon of the lavender fields, to embrace with your eyes the silvery lines of the olive groves, these sumptuous olive trees at the origin of a much sought-after AOC oil.
