Having fun enjoying this lovely Chateau Vignol 2016, AOC Bordeaux Entre-Deux-Mers. I've decided to pair it with a spicy oriental celery, chickpea soup. Yum, yum! Very happy with the combination! It is always good to try something new. @ 9,50€, you can't go wrong with this white in your cellar.

With such amazing weather, you definitely want to make sure you have an amazing rosé! A delicate sparkling rose gold color. Gorgeous aromas of melon and white peaches. It is fresh and fruity! Well balanced. The prefect rosé to accompany you through these lovely spring days! It is an unbelievable steal, costing only €6,95! This wine is wonderful when served as an apertif, shrimp from the grill, mixed green salad, grilled vegetables, and a soft cheese platter.

One evening... 2 Crèmants 3 Whites 5 Reds ...lots of laughs, good information, and amazing wines! What do you rely on when you remove the appellation, the price, the vine, and the name of the wine? The only thing you have left... your "personal" impression. It was great fun discovering these wines, with such an amazing group of people. **I would love to plan the perfect wine tasting for you!**
