Domaine des Hauts de Loire
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in a park (Onzain) In a forest along the Wine Route in Loir-et-Cher lies a hunting lodge built in 1860. The walls of this historic residence are covered with ivy and the eaves are alive with sweet song of birds. Nature lovers will be delighted with this hotel, which has its own private lake and “The Queen’s Alley”, a homage to the courtly promenades of Marie-Antoinette. Grand Chef Rémy Giraud describes the cuisine as “classical-modern”. On the menu are crémeux of crab in a sea urchin emulsion, young pigeon of Mme Lebert and lime soufflé. There are plenty of fine wines on offer, including the great Loire whites like Vouvray, Montlouis and Touraine.
