touraine

France's third-largest vineyard area, Touraine boasts a diverse selection of wines. Appellations such as Bourgueil, Chinon, and Vouvray have long found their way around the country, and the world. Here is where every wine lover can find satisfaction—red, white, rosé; still or sparkling; dry or sweet; young or aged.

Goat cheese, rillettes, and smoked Loire fish can be found on many tables, and no trip would be complete without the experience of a traditional Fouaces or Fouée Tourangelle.
