Exploring the Loire

A wonderful trip visiting wineries, a château, and bed-and-breakfasts. All the winery tours were interesting and varied. However, I was a bit disappointed with the Bredif and Amirault wineries because we didn’t get to meet the winemakers. The hospitality at the bed-and-breakfasts was wonderful, and the accommodations were of very high quality. It makes me want to return to this region.

Very good stay with visits to the Amirault, La Noblaie and Bedif estates! Superb bed and breakfast at Relais Saint Maurice. On the other hand, dinner at the Rochecorbon castle restaurant should be avoided!

Very nice stay

Excellent memories of Brédif and its excellent Vouvray brut, great visits to other wineries, but with a number one preference for the vineyard of La Chevalerie in Saint-Nicolas de Bourgueil, Jean-Charles, Bruneau exceptional, (the Pierre du Lane), ex aequo the house Brédif to discover absolutely, including exceptional red wines. Equally exceptional is a visit to the château at Azay le rideau.

Discovery Stay

Very good stay, very interesting tour, charming hosts and personalized, very moving cellar visits. Great sharing and pleasant encounters. A small downside on one of the wineries: no visit as planned, just a tasting with trainees. I would recommend Vinotrip for the quality of its services and exchanges.

Very good stay between St Nicolas de Bourgueil and Rochecorbon. The cellar visits were interesting and well-calibrated. The stays in the chambres d'hôtes were pleasant and the hosts charming.

STAY IN TOURAINE

We had a great time in Touraine, with visits to wine cellars and wine tastings. The accommodations met our expectations, with a special mention for the hosts' very attentive welcome. However, we did have one minor quibble with the first tour (Maison Mabileau), which seemed a bit rushed compared with the other three, where we had real explanations of the history and wine tasting. We recommend this tour!
