HOUSE OF VERON WINES
Go there and contact
The Véron vineyard is one of the oldest in Touraine. It is generally said that this terroir gives the wines of the Chinon appellation more roundness than those of other sectors or neighbouring appellations. In the 16th century, Rabelais already spoke of " this good Bretonwine which does not grow in Breton but in this good country of Véron ". Since its opening in 2004, in the center of Beaumont-sur-Véron, the vast and elegant Maison des Vins du Véron, remarkable with its cellars in the tufa stone with sculpted walls, presents and defends 23 winegrowers of the Véron region who benefit from the AOC Chinon. Here is a perfect address to be well advised and to mix your purchases with a varied composition of bottles, from different producers. More than a simple wine store, this House is a center of animation of the local viticulture and oenotourism with tastings, routes in the vineyards (including the 9 km wine trail marked out at the start of the wine house), exhibitions of old tools, and for groups the possibility of eating. You will find local products on the shelves: saffron, honeys, wine preserves and jams, but also rillettes of Loire fish, some pork specialties, without forgetting the famous "poires tapées". For the real wine lovers, there is also a complete range of accessories dedicated to this beverage. Finally, the house adds a cultural dimension to its activities with evening theaters.
