LES VIGNES SELON VAL

“Les vignes selon Val” offers guided walks and wine tastings in the heart of the vineyards of the Layon, Savennières and Brissac hillsides. A wine-growing region par excellence, the Anjou region enjoys an exceptional climate and terroirs. Since the Middle Ages, vines have been grown on its steep slopes, producing wines of great renown. Along the paths winding along the hillsides, between the plots of vines, you will have the opportunity to discover the specific features and history of the vineyards of Anjou. You’ll be able to familiarise yourself with growing and winemaking techniques, and grasp the importance of the interaction between the vine and its environment. Finally, an introduction to wine tasting will give you a chance to appreciate the art and work of the winegrower. The Savennières walk starts at Place du Mail, near the church, and covers a 7.5km loop. It follows signposted footpaths but also passes through private plots, with the permission of my winegrowing partners. There are ten or so informative stops along the way, accompanied by a tasting of Savennières wines to illustrate my points. Additional information : Open all year round by prior arrangement.
