Do you want to know the crossroads of the Roannaise coast while trying to solve puzzles? The wine tourism rally to discover the vineyards: Panique sur la Côte Roannaise, will meet your expectations! Created by the winegrowers of the Côte Roannaise in 2018, the kits are on sale to the general public online and at our reception points.
The plot
It has been several weeks, we are told, that in three plots of vines on the Roanne coast, the winegrowers have had the unpleasant surprise of discovering several uprooted vines. The gendarmes are doing their best, but the investigation is stalled, and it is yesterday in a new plot that a new crime was committed. Determined to catch the thug in the act, winemaker Oscar Maniak rushed towards him. Unfortunately, the fight turned out badly, the criminal was able to escape and our friend Oscar Maniak is now hospitalized in Roanne, in an alarming state. Shocked, he is unable to testify at the moment ...
During this investigation, you will be assistant detectives by the Baramine agency. Justine Baratine and Edmond Baravin are the managers of the agency. Rest assured that we will be able to reward those who will help Justine and Edmond, find Richard May's treasure and discover the odious criminal who has been tearing up vines for several weeks now.
The concept
Between the two villages of character, Ambierle and Saint-Jean-Saint-Maurice-sur-Loire, you will have 11 stages to complete and 4 stops to make to collect clues and be able to solve the riddles using a map and of a booklet.

Marion's opinion
The vines as far as the eye can see, a not too hot summer sun, it was a delicious moment with friends! I recommend it: to share without moderation with family or friends.
This criminal investigation is designed like a car rally, but the bravest can try it on an electric bike or why not on a moped for the vintage side!
You have the possibility to combine this rally with the visit of a village of character (Ambierle, Saint-Haon-le-Châtel or Saint-Jean-Saint-Maurice-sur-Loire) and even a wine tasting in one of the many cellars of the Côte Roannaise. And don't forget to share your photos on Instagram with the #paniquesurlacoteroannaise.
