Your Program

Departure :
Le Pallet, Museum of the Vineyard, Country of Heloïse and Abélard.
The plot : quest for the Graal, dedicated to the Bacchus’ memory, Greek god of vineyards and wine. You may win a symbolic cup of victory.
The so-called tests “Grand cru, terroir, pied de vigne…” is the metaphor of the wine making process. They will combine both fun and discovery, to cross knowledges as various as those of a territory, a culture, a history, an economy
Journeys : by personal car for transfers, but also canoe to enjoy the charms of the Sèvre river.

Optionnal : the apogee of the rally, can be marked by a helicopter flight, which will permit to resolve an enigma and to discover a superb point of view on the vines.
Places of culture will be also honoured, with the Castle of Haute-Goulaine and/or the Garenne Lemot in Clisson.

Lunch and tastings :
- buffet in a restaurant or in a vine grower
- During the day, tastings will punctuate the journeys, all the more that they will be perilous tests: tests of recognition of the wine, blindfolded after tasting, play on vocabulary to qualify odours and tastes, play of ability…

Aim of the game :
to have a good time by accumulating the successful tests ( good oenological, geographical, historical answers, ability, astuteness, visual attention, sporting activities…) to succeed and to win ….wine!

his day is also realizable in more traditional course, by coach, with guided tours of the various sites and lands. Please contact us.
