Jean-Yves Bardin: Vignerons d'Anjou


Arriving in Epeigné-les-Bois early last evening, after an easy drive from London – schools on half-term and almost no lorries on French roads due to the Ascension Day lorry-ban, I had a treat waiting for me – Jean-Yves Bardin's book: Vignerons d'Anjou.  I met Jean-Yves at this year's Salon des Vins in Angers and he promised me a copy. I was hoping it would arrive before I left Touraine in April but unfortunately it didn't.

So far just time to have a quick look – some great photos including the cover one of Jo Pithon. 

Will add to this post.

I love Jo and his "bakkebaarden" (the nice Flemish word for it).
