Loire Valley or Burgundy - recommendation & transport

Hi friends,

I am highly interested in doing a wine region in France for a honeymoon next June 2017. I am currently considering the Liore or Budgundy.

My question is two part:

1. Any experienced travelers to the region have a suggestion on one over the other (or even an alternate region)? I have 4/5 days and was considering stayin in the Tours area for the Liore or in Dijon & Beaune in Burgundy. I'd love to also hear suggestion on activities/vineyards to visit...PLEASE!

2. It looks like train schedules are posted for next summer, but it looks like Tours is about 1.5-2hrs on a train from CDG, and Dijon is over 4hrs...is that accurate? I was hoping to skip renting a car...is this advisable, or should I just rent a car if I am going to be vineyard hopping.

Thanks everyone who can offer help, advice, and suggestions!
