Caves du Père Auguste's story

This family estate was created by Father Auguste, 5 generations ago. He dug these cellars by hand and used the extracted stones for building the family house, next to the wine cellars.

Vines are just behind the hills, above the limestone tasting cellars.

Travellers' review - Caves du Père Auguste

  • Stay at Chissay Castle in Touraine

    We stayed 2 nights at Château de Chissay, a château of impressive proportions in a magnificent setting. The staff are very attentive and pleasant. The room was very large, but the bathroom was a little outdated and in need of renovation. Superb breakfast in the morning with homemade products (apple, lemon, orange, chocolate cakes, etc.), and a very good menu in the evening with careful presentation. Dinner on the 2nd evening at the auberge du bon laboureur with a very good discovery menu, quality presentation, served by an attentive team. 2 cellar visits were on the program, very different and therefore complementary: - Maison Bredif near Vouvray, with troglodyte cellars and very old bottles - Les caves du père Auguste, near Chenonceaux, with its touching family history. Great discoveries and interesting purchases. All in all, a very pleasant stay.

  • Wonderful stay

    This trip was offered to my dad for his 80th birthday, and they were delighted with this magnificent stay, which began with a hot-air balloon flight that was an unforgettable experience. The flight over the Château de Chenonceau and its surroundings was absolutely magnificent, at sunrise with the mist. Meal at the pleasant La Part Belle restaurant, followed by a visit to the Château Gaudrelle cellar with wine tasting, very well explained by the young lady. Afterwards, we were welcomed at Château de Chissay, a very pretty setting, the only downside being that the room was a little sad and lacking in decoration, and was located in the old stables rather than in the château. Superb breakfast the next morning, very wide choice, visit to Chenonceaux castle, then top-of-the-range lunch at the auberge du bon laboureur, a 1-star restaurant with a very refined menu. Finally, a visit to the caves du père Auguste, a beautiful setting and very interesting explanations during the tasting. They recommend this stay, which they enjoyed immensely, with unforgettable memories and a wonderful, relaxing time together!

  • Impressions of our trip to TOURAINE With the sweet name "ROMANCE

    Stay Gift from our son for two people from 16 to 17 October 2015 - LUNCH at the RESTAURANT l'EMBARCADERE. This Restaurant was to honor the products of the soil and greed. This meal made us "Navigate smoothly". - PRIVATE VISIT to CHATEAU GAUDRELLE. Our guide, a true pedagogue and lover of vines, explained the different types of soil (fossil or limestone), the orientation of the vines and the influence of the sea breezes that give the wines their Lives and Appellations. As an experienced oenologist, our guide explained vinification, appellations, vintages and storage in the cellars where VOUVRAY's sparkling wines age and assert themselves for our gustatory pleasure. A visit full of charm that left us "enthralled". - OUR STAY at CHATEAU de CHISSAY. For one night, we briefly realized that we were not guests, but the personalities... (PRINCIERES) of this residence. And it was in a sumptuous setting that we were received. Chef Lénaïc HUARD's menu, served by his brigade, was a feast for the eyes and our taste buds... Personally, I had the privilege of posing for a souvenir photo with Chef Lénaïc HUARD. These brief moments spent at the CHATEAU will remain highlights of our trip to TOURAINE. - Les CAVES du PERE AUGUSTE. A very warm welcome from the siblings, and it was one of the grandsons who gave us the history of the estate, highlighting the obstinacy, self-sacrifice and honor of passing on to his descendants the fruit of the courage required to earn the title of winegrower. Father Auguste, your image captivated us. - L'AUBERGE du BON LABOUREUR. This gastronomic restaurant richly deserves its Michelin star, because in addition to the discoveries and the pleasures of the table... The Menu served to us was as succulent as you could wish for. A meal of REAL GOURMANDISES. -In conclusion: "YES, VOUVRAY is UNIQUE, as is the originality of the WINE TRAVEL, which we fully APPRECIATED". BOURGES October 28, 2015 Paulette and Serge BRISSET
