The Loire Valley is the 3rd largest French wine region with famous “appellations” : Vouvray, Montlouis, Bourgueil, Chinon, Touraine, Cheverny, Jasnières…
Behind those famous Appellations, you will experience other wines, some completely unique and maybe even better for your palet !
Stop off in a vineyard, where you will learn about the special chemistry that exists between a particular terroir, plant, know-how and climate.
You will taste and feel these wines serenely, easily accompanied by local cheeses on French “baguette”.
You will find a lot of microclimates in the region, due to altitude, hillside exposure, and north-eastern wind. Hence a great variety of wines.
You will discover all along the Loire River an exceptional wine heritage, running past numerous castles and landscapes.
