Loire Valley wine

Connected by a majestic river, the vineyards of the Loire valley stretch from Sancerre to the Atlantic. From east to west, Centre, the Tours region, Anjou, the Saumur region and the Nantes region are the main appellation areas. The tourist route around the vineyards of the Loire valley leads wine lovers and beginners alike from cellars to vineyards, offering wine-related discoveries punctuated by visits to imposing castles, abbeys, cave dwellings and gardens along the Loire, now classed as part of the world heritage of mankind by Unesco (from Sully-sur-Loire to Chalonnes-sur-Loire).
