FLAVOR AMONG THE VINEYARDS – COOKING WORKSHOP WITH PICNIC IN THE LOIRE VALLEY

In the fields of the Loire, cooking becomes an act of gratitude towards the land.

Between rows of vines and air scented with lavender and baked bread, each ingredient takes on a distinct poetry.

The day begins on a farm surrounded by centuries-old vineyards. You walk among grapes ripening in the sun, pick herbs from the garden, and learn about the region's wines. It all invites you to slow down.

The cooking class takes place in a rustic kitchen with open windows. Local recipes such as quiches, savory tarts, homemade pâtés, and salads with edible flowers are prepared. The chef explains things unhurriedly, with the warmth of someone sharing a tradition, not a technique.

Then comes the time for the picnic: under a tree, on white tablecloths, the prepared food is served alongside glasses of wine from the vineyard itself. Time dissolves between bites, laughter, aromas, and the buzzing of bees.

Cooking in the Loire Valley is turning pause into art.
