Menetou-Salon (French pronunciation: [mɛntu salɔ̃]) is a commune in the Cher department in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France.
Documents from the years 1063, 1097 at 1100 have been recovered, where the Lord of Menetou gave a donation to different religious orders in the region, most particularly to the Saint-Sulpice-lès-Bourges Abbey, with vines located close to Davet.
Finally, the old writings relating to the wine of the Menetou-Salon vineyard, which is one of the most beautiful adornments of the stately table of silversmith Jacques Coeur, acquired by the seigniory of Menetou in 1450.
They even say that Agnès Sorel, when she came to rest under the old limetree which is still standing near the chateau to this day, particularly appreciated the wine of « Clos de la Dame ».
Completely furnished, the Menetou chateau has some beautiful features, such as a library with 12,000 books, a hall decorated like a chapter house from an abbey, one of Jacques Coeur's travel chests and cloths from a Flemish school.
