Château de Valmer

A wine estate of about 35 hectares in the Vouvray appellation, with Renaissance terraced gardens open to visitors and a tasting included.

The Château de Valmer, in Chançay, is both a historic garden and a winery. Its Renaissance-style terraced gardens bear the Jardin remarquable label, and around them the estate farms about 35 hectares of vines in the Vouvray appellation, on the right bank of the Loire, east of Tours.
