2017 Loire – Pouilly-Fumé last Wednesday morning

 At Saint-Andelain looking down towards 
Les Berthiers, shrouded in mist 


Last Wednesday morning it was truly autumnal with thick mist covering much of the lower ground between Chavignol (part of the commune of Sancerre) and Pouilly. We left Chavignol bathed in sunlight but by Saint-Satur the mist had closed in and it stayed that way well after we crossed the Loire till we reached the heights of Saint Andelain.

Les Loges, Pouilly-sur-Loire– one of the places along the Loire 
where the vines are quite close to the river
 
Les Loges – very much a vignerons' village 
Sancerre can be just glimpsed through the misty background
