Step into a moment that feels uniquely special.
10 minutes from Chinon, discover Château du Petit Thouars, a family-run estate where history, wine, and beauty meet.
Begin with a guided walk through our vineyard (Cabernet Franc & Chenin Blanc), followed by a visit to our 15th-century troglodyte cellar and a wine tasting with explanations in the château courtyard.
Then, the moment you’ve been waiting for…
Your private picnic: the table beautifully set and prepared just for you - an invitation to slow down and savour. Enjoy a generous, carefully prepared lunch with fresh salads, deli meats, cheeses, and a local Chinon dessert (dietary requirements and allergies happily accommodated with a small supplement), paired with a bottle of our wine.
In cooler months, settle into a candlelit vaulted indoor space with sheepskins and blankets.
Hosted by the Count and Countess, whose family have owned and cared for the estate since 1636.
Tour/tasting may be shared; the picnic is always private.
