All the towns you cycle through are famous for their AOC Côtes du Rhône wines and their AOC Ventoux wines, and for growing vinestock. As you cycle you will also come to understand the importance of water here, as you cross Carpentras Canal and cycle along the derivation canal on the scrub highlands between Sarrians and Vacqueyras. Irrigation has also enabled other crops to be grown here, such as strawberries, vegetables, fruit trees and more.
