Adrian B said...: Great Photos Jim. Enjoying a Huet 'Haut Lieu' Sec 2008 as i read your blog (delicious - ripe apricots with piercing acidity - plenty of life left ahead of it on this showing)

What Camera/Lens did you use for these shots? (apologies if this has been covered before!)
Cheers!; 9 January 2014 at 21:17
Jim's Loire said...: Adrian. Many thanks. Very good white vintage 2008. These photos would have been taken with my Canon Powershot Pro 1, which I have now abandoned for the SLR Canon EOS 5 Mark II.; 9 January 2014 at 21:29

Jim's Loire said...: Hi Emmanuel. Many thanks. Our best wishes to all of the family for 2014 – hopefully an easier vintage than 2012 and 2013!

Will you be at the Salon des Vins de Loire?

A bientôt et bien à toi
