Castle with Renaissance gardens with Italian terraces, a troglodytic chapel and the tufa cellars.

Set against a 60-hectare park, Château de Valmer features superb Renaissance gardens whose Italian-style terraces follow the slope of the hillside, creating a unique panorama. Over eight levels and a difference in height of some thirty meters, the gardens feature balustrades, statues, columns, staircases and fountains, as well as a checkerboard of colors and flavors. Also worth seeing is a troglodytic chapel dating from 1524, housing an exceptional 15th-century altar. Vouvray wines are aged in the tufa stone cellars; 6 of the 29 hectares are located within the park.

Quelle belle halte que ce site verdoyant. Le parc est superbe. On y trouve des arbres, arbustes, des fleurs, des fruits, des plantes, des fontaines... On se régale de framboises et de groseilles :)
Et que dire de la collection de menthes ou de la dégustation devant la boutique, en contemplant le spectacle...
Une belle trouvaille.

Le domaine viticole de Valmer peut se visiter, avec notamment les jardins et le potager ainsi que les douves bien fleuries. Il est aussi possible de déambuler librement dans la forêt à proximité et de faire une visite guidée des chais et des caves, ce que je vous recommande car les explications sont claires et intéressantes de la part du responsable, Jean de Saint Venant.
