Tuesday for towns and villages in the Loire Valley - Cravant-les-Coteaux

Today we are featuring Cravant-les-Coteaux which sits just over 10km east of Chinon in the heart of wine country. 
This pretty little village offers a good walk past many of the fine wine caves of the area plus a picnic opportunity with a panoramic view over the vineyards.

 It also offers something for history buffs in its ancient church in the old town (Carolingian or Merovingian, depending on what you read) plus a fine example in the village itself.
