I highly suggest you visit some wineries :-)

Richard N has said it all. The town itself is quite charming, you will miss the big event which happens in september when the official start of the harvest is decreed ( even if half the grapes are already harvested as happens from time to time) Be sure to go to Bergerac as well it is a nice town on the river with lots of history even if Cryano never really lived there (even as a fictional character the Bergerac connection was fictional, read the book)

One of the high points of my visit was lunch at a vinyard . . .I have a few (too few as I realize) pictures on my website
