Today was an easy day - we went wine tasting! The area around Montlouis-sur-Loire generally grows chenin blanc in clay with either flint or limestone, and that's what we tried! In our past wine life, we'd had plenty of red wines to age, but not really whites - that changed now 🙂. These whites will be best (depending on which one) anywhere between 1 and 10 years...
We made quick work of several caves, then parked and had a picnic lunch along the Loire river.

Heading back to the apartment, we stopped for groceries and a couple of different wines to try (now that we know what's what)!
