Hi,
We are going from Paris to the S. of France, but have an extra day. Money is an issue, but would like to know where we should stop by train to stay overnight in order to do wine tastings. However, we need to do it by walking, bus, or train. Should we just go directly to Juan Les Pins where we will be for two nights and travel around from there, or stay somewhere else for that extra day? Any suggestions?

The Alpes Maritimes is not known for its wine. There are only a few vineyards and they%26#39;re difficult to reach by public transport and will also mostly need advance notice to arrange a visit for tasting. There are some vineyards above Nice in Bellet and Cremat. There%26#39;s also wine made at Villars sur Var, a town you can reach by a fairly infrequent train on the Chemin de Fer de Provence line out of Nice. Also St Jeannet, a village accessible by bus. I%26#39;m afraid I%26#39;ve never visited any of the vineyards, tho%26#39; one year we did get the bus to Bellet, but didn%26#39;t find the domaine.
There are plenty more vineyards in the Var region, but I think you%26#39;d need a car to get to them.
