Biplane in the cellar of Alphonse Mellot
Taking advantage of typically poor English Bank Holiday weather to sort out a few photos. It takes no time to take digital pics, much longer to catalogue them in a retrievable way. Here are some taken on a trip to Sancerre in mid-December 2008.

I can't help noticing that all these Sancerre producers are posing with their red wines rather than with their Sauvignons.
ReplyDeleteAgree totally re. digital pics.
Well spotted JT. I was researching an article on red Sancerre for Decanter.
ReplyDeleteDid you ever get any news about the condition and future of La Poussie from Ladoucette/UK importers? I hope there's been some improvement...
