Day 2, Wednesday 20^th Sept. 2006:

Reims --> Poitiers 305 Mi / 490 km / 4h30

After a king's breakfast and our mandatory driver's meeting, we will leave early this morning. We will take one last picture in front of this magnificent castle, as we are heading toward our next castle near the town of Poitiers. This is where your unique winemaking experience will take place for the next 3 days. Lunch will be taken on the road around the town of Orléans. We will arrive at the Chateau de Curzay by mid-afternoon. You will have plenty of time to relax by the pool, explore the castle's grounds, visit the castle's own little chapel or borrow a bicycle from the hotel.
We will see you later on this evening for a welcome drink and to meet your hosts for the next 2 days for dinner. ...

Once you’ve dropped off your bags in your room you’ll receive your full weekend programme. Enjoy a delicious dinner in the company of the people you’ll be working with over the next couple of days including the winemakers. Chief winemaker F. Brochet PhD will then introduce you to the area and the weekend’s activities.

Your Hotel For The Next 3 Nights

Château de Curzay

Built in 1710, the Château de Curzay is set in the heart of an immense parkland on the banks of a river. The individually decorated rooms, the terrace with its majestic cedars, the pool in the shade of the XIIth century towers and the light, innovative cuisine offer you a haven of calm and serenity and a superb culinary experience.
