Description
Chinon-Sancerre Two-day Tour
The appellations of Chinon, Bourgueil and Saint Nicolas de Bourgueil produce what are arguably the Loire Valleys finest red wines. Located to the west of Tours, this is Cabernet Franc country par excellence and guests have the opportunity to taste a wide selection of them, often accompanied by local delicacies. We concentrate on small, family wineries, often with hundreds of years of wine production behind them.
Sancerre is known throughout the world for its white wines produced from Sauvignon blanc which are amongst the stars of the Loire Valley. But fantastic Pinot noir reds and roses are also produced and these are fine wines indeed! "Little sister" Pouilly-fumé and Pouilly sur Loire wines should not be missed either, the latter from Chasselas grapes, which used to be grown here for eating rather than wine.
