I left the crush of the Liberty Wines tastings, hopped on a tube and headed to the French Association of Independent Growers at the Lords Cricket Ground (St John's Wood, London). Like the Liberty event I intend to write this up over the next few days but here are some photos of the Loire producers present at this tasting.

Domaine Gibault is really great. There wines are totally expressive of their terroir but also have a great roundness. Please visit our website to buy.
