Saint-Victor-la-Coste
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saint-Victor-la-Coste is a town and commune in the Gard département, located northwest of Avignon, in the south of France.
Built against a hill overlooking a plain covered with vineyards with the Rhone valley in the distance, the town was once part of the medieval domain of the Sabran family, vassals to the Count of Toulouse. Interesting sights include an 11th-century church and a 13th-century fort, known locally as as "Le Castellas," and which was restored by the French volunteer organization "La Sabranenque."
There are several wineries in the village producing Cotes du Rhone wines.
