France - Brittany Day 01 - Drive to Dinan

The drive reminded me of my home province in Canada, New Brunswick. Low rolling hills and large tree lined areas.
This wine tasting co-op had an excellent selection, a knowledgeable staff member and very nice charcuterie. My wife was not a fan of their wines though, alas.
 This is Chateau Moncontour in the Loire, not the medieval village more North. It is a winery. We did not stop there.
I really admired the little towns we drove through and the side streets we had to drive down to get through them. The lack of routes around them forced you to see a little of what the town was about. To tempt you to rest.
 We passed through many little towns.
