G ASTRONOMY
In the region of Rabelais (an author), it's hard to resist a small piece of cheese and a glass of wine .
The cheeses (Sainte Maure, Pouligny, Pyramide...), the wines (Vouvray, Montlouis, Chinon, Bourgueil...), charcuteries/cold meats or an oil mill dating back to the 18 century - something to delight everyone.
We can also propose a commented tasting in caves 16th century (caves Duhard).
