Picnic in the Vines - Un'esperienza enologica unica nella Loira
Descrizione
Entra in un momento che ti fa sentire speciale. A 10 minuti da Chinon, scoprite Château du Petit Thouars, una tenuta a conduzione familiare dove storia, vino e bellezza si incontrano. Inizia con una passeggiata guidata attraverso il nostro vigneto (Cabernet Franc & Chenin Blanc), seguita da una visita alla nostra cantina di trogloditi del XV secolo e una degustazione di vini con spiegazioni nel cortile del castello. Poi, il momento che stavi aspettando... Il vostro picnic privato : la tavola apparecchiata e preparata appositamente per voi - un invito a rallentare e assaporare. Godetevi un pranzo generoso e preparato con cura con insalate fresche, salumi, formaggi e un dessert locale Chinon (esigenze alimentari e allergie felicemente accolti con un piccolo supplemento), abbinato a una bottiglia del nostro vino. Nei mesi più freddi, sistemati in uno spazio coperto a lume di candela con pelli di pecora e coperte. Ospitato dal Conte e dalla Contessa, la cui famiglia possiede e cura la tenuta dal 1636. Il tour/degustazione può essere condiviso; il picnic è sempre privato.

The wine tasting and cellar and vineyard tour was great. The host and his family were friendly and approachable. It all started a bit late and we weren't sure if we were in the right place while waiting ( but we were in a gorgeous place, shaded under the trees outside his stunning chateau) . Lunch was in a fabulous location in the vineyard with a lovely dressed table and delicious wine. The food was a bit underwhelming for the price. 7 people, 3 baguettes, 2 cheeses, 4 huge slabs of 2 kinds of pate, grated carrot and chopped tomatoes. 2 bottles of wine and 2 very welcome carafes of cool water. It was a great trip and we're very pleased we went and it made a special end to our holiday.
Beautiful discovery, the guide who was the owner told us about his castle and his vineyards with love, followed by a charming picnic in the shade of the trees, my friend and I were delighted with this moment.
A wonderful experience. The tour was conducted by a descendant of the family that have owned the chateau for 400 years and he is passionate about the heritage and the vines. A tour of the vineyards and the caves was followed by wine tasting and a lovely picnic lunch in the grounds of the chateau. Highly recommended.
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.
