Made from Chenin Blanc grape, Vouvray wines offers mineral wines with a high acidity level which gives to the wine a great aging capacity.

Then, your guide will lead you to Chinon for a sighhtseeing of the town. With its medieval streets, Chinon has remained an outdoor museum of architecture and history. Discover the medieval half-timbered houses and the Renaissance townhouses built the King’s financers or ministers. With its fortress built by Henry II Plantagenet and Richard Lion’s heart, Chinon is the town where Joan of Arc met King Charles VII in 1429. You'll enjoy free time for lunch, your guide will recommend restaurants.
