Saturday 21st March 2015: Fête des Vins de Bourgueil à Tours



Saturday 21st March 2015 sees the annual invasion of Tours by the assembled forces of the Bourgueil producers for the Fête des Vins de Bourgueil à Tours.  As usual the producers will have their stands along the middle of the Boulevard Heurteloup close to the Gare de Tours.   

'Venez rencontrer une cinquantaine de vignerons de Bourgueil installés boulevard Heurteloup à Tours pour déguster les vins de Bourgueil.
 
En présence de la Commanderie de la Dive Bouteille de Bourgueil et Saint-Nicolas de Bourgueil, et de métiers de bouche qui proposent une restauration sur place, cette dixième édition de la fête des vins de Bourgueil à Tours proposera également des animations pour les enfants autour du goût et de la dégustation.'
