About
In the heart of the loire valley, at the border between two appelations Bourgueil and St Nicolas de Bourgueil, nested in a beautiful landscape, the “Cave de la Dive Bouteille” is the historical reprensative of limestone (tuffeau) extraction.

An informative short tour with a gentleman who was very easy to listen to and knowledgeable. He understood enough English to communicate with members of our party who didn’t speak any French. After the tour, we had a wine tasting where we tasted wines from the local area and was impressed enough to purchase several. We would recommend a visit if in the area and a most enjoyable hour or two out of our day.

A lovely spot by the Vineyard for Lunch. An excellent variety of local wines to taste. We had a 3 year old with us who was kept amused by the free range chickens and the caves.
Lovely hosts.

A great free trip to the small but excellent wine making museum, followed by wine tasting. We then sat on the patio and bought some delicious regional snacks and wine, (very good value) overlooking the idyllic views over the vineyard. The EXPRESSO or is it Espresso (it's Italian after all) was great too!! This last bit is a bit of a private joke between us and our hostess who spoke fluent English.

What a great way to enjoy a late lunch. There is a wide variety of wines to try and a delicious easy meats and cheese option. This is not a full lunch menu, which is perfect. You have a beautiful view, wonderful hospitality, and an excellent variety of local foods. We ended up purchasing several of the wines to take home because of the variety and quality. Great afternoon.

Fascinating Caves and it was interesting learning about the wine making process - all made better by a very friendly and helpful guide. Very generous and interesting tasting session too!

Just what you want to experience when you’re on holiday in the area: a bit of history about the gorgeous wines, wine tasting session where the history and characteristics of the wines is unravelled by the very knowledgeable owner and a nice French style « apéro » meal on the terrasse overlooking the vineyards in a quite, peaceful and soûl-appeasing atmosphere. Just perfect!
We enjoyed every moment of it and you will certainly enjoy it too!
Merci Guillaume pour une visite très agréable et une dégustation qui a fait voyagé nos papilles 😋. Notre petit préféré, le « Roc Collection » a déjà fait les frais de la première dégustation de retour à la maison... il faudra donc revenir très bientôt!

Guillame is an excellent and enthusiastic host with a charming manner and a comprehensive knowledge of the terroir and distinctive local wines. We came across the Cave by happy accident, bought some wine and decided to return for the delightful harvest festival the following day. We enjoyed an excellent lunch of charcuterie, cheese and crudités while watching the first pick of this year’s harvest, celebrated with a procession of musicians, priests, pickers and stomping folk, led by a shire horse and carriage. Then Guillame sold us some more wine. We were lucky to be there at such a good time, but we would expect you to enjoy your visit whenever you choose to go. The surrounding villages and vineyards are worth the detour.
