Colourful houses of Tournus

Abbaye of St Philibert

Hotel Dieu - Men’s Ward

We’ve just had a great visit to Tournus.  What a gem of a town with its Abbaye, Hotel Dieu, cobbled streets, terracotta tiled roofs and its wines!   Plenty of opportunity to taste and learn about wine and we also had a great visit to Domaine Denderes where we not only learnt about wine but also ‘pisciculture’.  A great word that has nothing to do with drinking copious amounts of alcohol!! It’s all about stocking lakes and rivers with ecologically raised fish.
