Tour de France 2025 Six Pack

Tour De France 2025... It's the event of the year for every impassioned cyclist. 
 Once again, at City Wine Shop, we're suiting up with our Lycra, helmet, and jersey - we've selected six key stages to match with wines from across the 2025 route. Starting our journey in Caen, Normandy, capital of the Calvados department, renowned for its cider and apple varieties. Following this, we move to the Loire Valley, making a diversion via Chinon for the very first time in the tour's history. Now we enter the picturesque Loudenvielle, a small mountain village with rolling hills and snowy mountain peaks. Continuing our journey into Montpellier, the rest stage, let's enjoy the sun and sea before we tackle the elevated Alps of Mont Ventoux. Now, with the ascending Mountain climb, we head for Albertville in the Savoie department, famed for its ski resorts, national parks, and mountain views. 

As we approach the final leg of the tour, we're back in Paris to clear the finish line - so it's time to kick back and enjoy some Champagne!
