Wines of the Loire
Wines of the Loire
Partly covered by the UNESCO World Heritage programme, the Loire Valley wine producing region, the third largest AOC (Appellation d'origine Controllée) in France, spreads from the Atlantic to Touraine, at the balance point between the South and the North – between sweetness and freshness, between arts and letters, between tradition and modernity.
These harmonious blends, favoured by a mild climate and a mosaic of different soil types, gives the richest diversity of wines in the world.
