Rendezvous in the vineyards

And more specifically, a visit to the vines of the Vouvray AOC! In Chançay, meet Myriam Fouasse-Robert, who will be delighted to share with you the secrets of this appellation whose reputation extends far beyond the banks of the Loire.

Workshop from vine to glass of wine

On Saturday, follow the commented walk of around 2 km through the vineyards of the domaine Alain Robert, with plenty of explanations on the way. Then discover the winery and troglo cellar, where vinification will be discussed, in particular leading up to the production of fine bubbles. Finally, you’ll taste 6 wines, accompanied by a slate of local produce. Not a bad programme!

Two other events focus on tasting: introductory tasting workshops also offered on Saturdays, and a oenology course once a month on Thursday evenings.

The granddaughter of a winegrower and a former English teacher, Myriam Fouasse-Robert decided to return to the world of wine, as her husband and sister-in-law are themselves at the helm of the domaine Alain Robert, 20 kilometres from Tours. Following one of Myriam’s workshops, you’ll visit this tourist winery that produces Vouvray, Crémant de Loire and Touraine appellation wines from 37 hectares of vines. Let yourself be tempted by the bubbles, the perfect accompaniment to your aperitifs and desserts, and succumb to the still wines (dry, semi-dry and sweet), which are perfect with food and wine. And what a pleasure it is to find wines on your table whose origin you know perfectly well!
