We had an entertaining and fun weekend soaking up all the Loire has to offer. We saw 3 of the 300 odd chateaux in the area – the grounds, architecture and furnishings were all pretty amazing. Along the way we polished off a bottle of rosé from a cellar door with a picnic lunch, ate crepes, enjoyed the passing scenery from the car, had a few good 3 course dinners, tasted local wines at a festival (4 euros for all you can taste!) and definitely enjoyed each other’s company.
