We spent a wonderful day with Keith and Linda who shared with us their knowledge and love for the wines of the Touraine and Vouvay regions. The couple are very friendly and did not rush us as we toured three very different wineries. We had a delicious three course lunch, the highlight of which was the local tartelette des vignerons, an apple tart with a red wine gel on top, we genuinely had never tried anything like it! The wineries are all small family businesses, often handed down through generations, and it’s very special to hear the wine makers talk with pride about their heritage and their wines. We probably tasted about 20 wines and had a snapshot to the wide variety of wines in the area. Keith and Linda were terrific hosts, we felt like we had known them for ages, and we would gladly recommend them and their tour to all visitors to Amboise and this part of the Loire Valley.
