Loire Valley Wine and Food Experiences

Discover the Loire Valley Through Our Tailor-Made Wine Retreats

Our wine retreats are thoughtfully designed to showcase the very best of Saumur and the Loire Valley’s most innovative winemakers. Over the years, we’ve cultivated close relationships with exceptional producers, allowing us to handpick the perfect wineries for each themed retreat. The result? A curated, fun, and immersive journey into the heart of this renowned wine region.

You’ll explore a world of high-quality wines, experiencing the journey from vine to glass. Walk through the vineyards where the grapes are nurtured, meet the passionate winemakers at their domaines, and learn how they craft wines that reflect their unique soils, techniques, and philosophies.

Staying at our welcoming home, La Maison Trumeau, adds an extra layer of connection and relaxation. Share conversations over a glass of wine, compare tastings from different vineyards, and gain a deeper appreciation for the characters and stories that make the Loire Valley one of the most dynamic wine regions in France.

We take care of everything—vineyard visits, tastings, meals, and accommodations—so you can simply savour the experience. Whether you’re a seasoned wine enthusiast or a curious beginner, our retreats are designed to make you feel at ease, taking the intimidation out of wine tasting while creating unforgettable memories.
