Epeigné-Les-Bois: Saint Vincent 2014

Fabrice Sommeria

Dateline: Epeigné-les-Bois Saint Vincent 26th January 2014
Report from Mark Robertson, Jim's Loire's special correspondent sur place:

'A few photos from Sunday’s very successful Saint Vincent at Epeigné. 

The Saint Vincent – Fabrice Sommeria, a packed hall, the use of a smartphone to find lyrics for a song, the Saint Vincent in full voice and the menu (very good it was too*). 

Wines served were from the Francueil co-opérative – Blanc Touraine Amboise Moelleux 2009, Blanc Sauvignon 'Tête du Cuvée' 2012, Rouge Bertrand de Grateloup Cot 2012, Rouge Cabernet 2010 , Blanc Methode ½ Sec.
