Concentrating mainly but not exclusively on the Loire's vineyards, its vignerons and their wines along with places to eat and stay. Also covers some recently published wine books – not just from Loire. Regional Chair for Loire @Decanter's World Wine Awards since its inception.
Winner of the 2009 Wine Blog Trophy (journalist category) Salon des Vins de Loire. I have a large and expanding library of photos, particularly from the Loire – places, producers, vineyards etc. European.
Jim, this is a GREAT day. First, my fever seems to be gone. Second, I catch you red-handed in committing the major sin you flay me for: approximation. That other magic Leon indeed wrote Anna Karina to the same extent that you ate pastéis de NANETA !!! Still, amongst the many movies devoted to this “Madame Bovary of the Russians” – we had Vivien Leigh, Greta Garbo .... – I prefer the 1997 Bernard Rose version, featuring a splendid Sophie Marceau indeed, alongside Sean Bean. By the way, what size will fit YOU ?
