If you’re after a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of suggestions. Located 30 miles away, Sancerre is worth hopping in the car for. Among your first stops here should be Domaine Vacheron, Domaine Robert et Francois Crochet and Henri Bourgeois. Locals will also likely point you toward Cheverny, 40 miles away. If you can only see one attraction here, let it be Chateau de Cheverny. (But we’re also huge fans of Chateau de Beauregard and Les Secrets de Moulinsart.)
