Guest reviews for this experience
nice stay
The welcome everywhere was remarkable. Chateau Soucherie's hospitality too. A real 2/3 h oenology session would have been appreciated.

High quality stay
My parents came back enchanted from the "Accords Parfaits par Olivier Poussier" weekend. The service was of the highest quality, and the people involved (restaurant owners, winemakers, cab drivers) were all very attentive to our parents' needs. They were welcomed by people who were very attentive to their every need.... They were delighted with the Domaine de la Soucherie, and the three restaurants they sampled were of very high quality....The restaurant in Angers being exceptional. In conclusion, an exceptional stay with top-of-the-range services.
