Picnic i vinstokkene – en unik Loire-vinoplevelse
Beskrivelse
Gå ind i et øjeblik, der føles unikt specielt. 10 minutter fra Chinon, opdage Château du Petit Thouars, en familiedrevet ejendom, hvor historie, vin og skønhed mødes. Begynd med en guidet tur gennem vores vingård (Cabernet Franc & Chenin Blanc), efterfulgt af et besøg i vores 15. århundrede troglodyte kælder og en vinsmagning med forklaringer i slottet gårdhave. Det øjeblik, du har ventet på... Din private picnic: bordet smukt sat og forberedt lige for dig - en invitation til at bremse ned og nyde. Nyd en generøs, omhyggeligt forberedt frokost med friske salater, delikatesser, ost og en lokal Chinon dessert (dietmæssige krav og allergier glæder sig med et lille supplement), kombineret med en flaske vores vin. I koldere måneder, bosætte sig i en candlely vaulted indendørs rum med fåreskind og tæpper. Hosted af grevinden og grevinden, hvis familie har ejet og plejet ejendommen siden 1636. Turen / smagen kan deles; picnic er altid privat.

Rejseplan
Beliggende kun 10 minutter fra Chinon, ankommer du til Château du Petit Thouars, en familieejet ejendom, der er gået ned i en direkte linje siden 1636. Begynd med en tur gennem vores AOC Chinon vingårde, hvor Cabernet Franc og Chenin Blanc trives. Fortsæt til vores imponerende troglodyte kælder, udskåret i århundredgamle kalksten, hvor vinen ældes i franske egetræsfat. Oplevelsen flyttes derefter til slottets gårdhave, for en guidet smagning af vores vine med klare og engagerende forklaringer. Efterfølgende kan du nyde din omhyggeligt forberedte picnic i en privat setting, med et smukt klædt bord. Maden er hentet fra fremragende lokale leverandører, med en præference for økologiske produkter, herunder olivenolie og ost. Dine værter er den venlige greve og grevinde du Petit Thouars, ejere af ejendommen, der gennemfører ture på engelsk, fransk og spansk. Dette er virkelig mindeværdige Loire Valley oplevelse.

A unique and great experience. Such fun! Very professional presentation and tour of the vineyards followed by a lovely wine tasting. Finally a perfect picnic with a view over the estate. Excellent!
Visit with the owner of the place. Sebastien is passionate and shares his love for wine with us. Super pleasant, and we were able to see everything behind the scenes of wine preparation. We were able to taste wonderful wines. We took it with the picnic. Everything was excellent. I recommend without hesitation.
We’d like to express our gratitude to our amazing host, Sebastian, for hosting us at Chateaux du Petit-Thouars. We had a blast learning about the family’s rich history and sampling their delicious wines. This was a highlight we’ll always cherish from our trip to the French countryside. Merci beaucoup et a bientot!
A superb experience from start to finish for this visit and tasting. Sébastien welcomed us very well and shared his passion for wine with us. We ended with a picnic on the heights of the castle with very good local products. I recommend it
We had a wonderful visit and were made very welcome. It was great to see a family owned chateau and winery run with such passion by the owners. After a history of the chateau and the family (who have owned the place uninterrupted since the 15th century), Sebastian conducted a really friendly and informative tasting of their red and white wines, all of which we thought were excellent, especially the complex and aged red ‘l’Amiral’. After that, the lunch provided of local pates and cheeses was very good, all washed down with a complimentary bottle of St Georges red. We would highly recommend this informative, friendly experience to anyone staying in this region of the Loire. 10/10.
Lovely afternoon spent among the beauty of this chateau vineyard. The proprietor gave us a great tour of the winery with interesting facts of his family’s long history on the property. You can really see how lovingly involved the family is from planting to bottling. The wine and picnic were divine - delicious food and a fantastic setting hidden among the garden! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a nice, leisurely afternoon!
What a wonderful way to spend a few hours in the tranquil Loire Valley. The owner is very knowledgeable and friendly. He speaks excellent English. The tour was fabulous and very informative. The wine tasting - even though I don’t drink wine all the tasted lovely. We had the tour and picnic. Excellent value for money. A bucket list wish for my partner ticked off. The picnic location was inspiring and the food could not be faulted.
Wow - you have to do this during your visit to Chinon!! 13 generations of family wine making. The history and tour was amazing. Then, Sebastian shared five beautiful wines with us. We were blown away by the variety of flavors - all from a single grape, Cabernet Franc. This was followed by a candle lit lunch with so much food and wine. We had the best time!! Thank you for an amazing afternoon!
Such a lovely vineyard and overall experience. We got to do wine tasting on numerous different types of wines after taking a look at the actual process of the wine making. Then we had a private picnic with local delicacies and a whole bottle of wine to share. The best part is that we Biscuits, the most lovely cat that lives on the property, following us around the whole adventure. Great experience. Would definitely recommend!
We enjoyed the history of the chateau and the resident family. The tour of the vineyards and cellars was informative. The host was amicable and very educated on the working of the estate. Delicious wines; we bought several. The picnic was divine!
