We had a picnic basket booked for 2 people at the Chateau St. Jean but honestly were pretty disappointed by it. The place is pretty, nice gardens, the picturesque view over the garden onto the vineyard though is reserved for club members only.
The idea of booking a picnic basket is so romantic and we came hungry and excited and bought a bottle of sparkling rose with it. The basket contained only the most basic stuff though and every supermarket snack would have been better, in our opinion. The sandwich fixing is focaccia bread, a slice of cheese, tomato, onion and salad. Fresh fruits are two apples. Two apples. We also had two homemade cookies and less than a handful of egg salad and dry, cold chicken. It s fine for a snack basket for 20$, but it s such a rip-off for 80$. While the idea is really cute, I recommend rethinking the value proposition. Either put in enjoyable foods or make it just much much cheaper.
