Touraine is situated in the heart of France, only a short train ride from Paris. This beautiful region is defined by the Loire River and the pastoral valley that follows along its banks. It is home to some of the most breathtaking chateaux, as well as vast and varied vineyards that have been producing an enormous range of wine for centuries. The Loire is the most diverse wine region in France, and is known for some of the best cabernet franc, chenin blanc, and sauvignon blanc in the world!
