Vineyard areas close to Blois

We would like to visit some wineries while we are in Blois. Are there any within a few kilometers of the town and is there public transport available or taxis. any suggestions?

A good place to start will be at the Maison du Vin in Blois, which is directly opposite the Chateau. It has lots of maps and leaflets etc with details on opening times etc of all the local winemakers.





The 4 main AOC areas around Blois are Touraine, Tourain-Mesland, Cheverny and Cour-Cheveny.





All the winemakers in these areas can be found on this link;

Happy to recommend my personal favourites if you would like.





Organising a taxi to take you out to the vineyards will not be a problem.

That%26#39;s great, thank you, exactly what I was looking for.

Try the vineyard of Cyril Sevin in Mont pres Chambord, about 15 mins. from Blois. Excellent wines to taste and buy.
