Off on an adventure – Day 1. Bertrand Minchin


Bertrand Minchin: Menetou-Salon and Valençay


By the time you read this CRM and I will be on our way to Hong Kong. The first stage of a trip that will take us into mainland China after a few days in Hong Kong. After time in China we will catch the train from Beijing to Forest Hill, London SE23 – Trans-Manchurian, Trans-Siberian, Moscow-Paris, Eurostar to Saint Pancras, Metropolitan Line to Whitechapel and Overground to Forest Hill. 

As I suspect there will be limited time to post on Jim's Loire – there are posts prepared in advance that will feature pics of Loire producers and may be from elsewhere plus some recently enjoyed bottles.
