Montrichard enjoys an ideal location on the southern Loire Valley wine route: just 15 minutes from the majestic Château of Chenonceau, the Royal Château d’Amboise and the city of Saint-Aignan. This authentic medieval city seduces with its fortifications, its cobbled streets and its breathtaking view of the Cher valley. Not to mention the imposing feudal keep where, it is said, Richard the Lionheart was held prisoner. As for the vineyards, Montrichard is at the heart of the Touraine appellation and its variations: Touraine Chenonceaux, Touraine Oisly, but also at a stone’s throw of Cheverny and Valençay.
