Organic Wine & Lunch in the Loire Valley, Loire Valley

A local wine specialist will pick you up at your hotel this morning for a day among the grapevines. Together, you'll drive to Bourgueil, a region renowned for its high-quality red wines. Here you'll learn about the region's appellation vineyards and organic horticultural techniques. 

Make the most of the idyllic scenery with a picnic in the vineyards. Or, you can enjoy lunch in a farm-to-table restaurant, where you'll enjoy the best of local produce and a smattering of specialties. Some favorites among locals include rillettes (slow-cooked meat similar to pate) and regionally produced smoked fish and goat cheeses, all complemented with the area's signature wines.

After lunch, it's time for another round of wine tasting, this time underground! You'll discover the area's unique troglodyte cellars carved into the rocks along the Loire River; the stone setting is perfect for sampling the area's light and fruity red varietals.
