Lhomme

France

Lhomme is a small rural village in the Pays de la Loire, France. It has a few bars/restaurants, boulangerie and a village store.

This locality is in a rural agricultural and wine-growing area, close to the river Loir - that's le Loir, not the much larger and more famous la Loire further south. Local wines are Jasnières AOC, which is a dry white wine exclusive to Lhomme and nearby Ruillé-sur-Loir, and Coteaux du Loir AOC, which include white, red and rosé wines.
