“Hotel Chais Monnet & Spa distinguishes itself with unique cognac tasting masterclasses and a Michelin-starred restaurant, Les Foudres. I think the Condé Nast Johansens Award-winning spa underlines the property's commitment to luxury and wellness. While some may find its modernity unexpected for a vineyard district, I believe the rooftop bar, with its panoramic views, is a highlight.”
