Location
Located on the left bank of the Loire, halfway between Tours and Blois, Amboise stands proudly in the heart of the Touraine vineyards. This small town, where royal history blends with wine culture, embodies both the richness of its heritage and the excellence of the wines produced in its surroundings. Amboise is known not only for its château and its links with Leonardo da Vinci, but also for its vineyards that stretch across the hillsides bordering the Loire.
