The Gardens of the Château de Valmer
Ordered along two main axes, the gardens follow the slopes of the hillside and take beautifully advantage of the slope of a spur between two valleys.
The architecture, the terraces and the charmilles form a typical ensemble of the XVIème and XVIIème centuries.

The Vineyard of the Château de Valmer
Since more than 16 centuries, the Vouvray vineyard lays harmoniously at the east of Tours, on the right bank of the Loire and the slopes of the hinterland valleys.
Located at the heart of the appellation, the Château de Valmer vineyard spreads on 70 acres and yields each year exceptional wines.
