We spent the afternoon visiting the splendor of Château de Varennes, a vineyard in the family since the 16th century. The current family is the 15th generation of that lineage.
Here is a photo of me with Monsieur Charvériat in the tasting room. This is a photo of the five wines they produce. We tried every single one of them.
I am not showing the photo after that when I was trying to squeeze around a barrel with empty wine glasses on top. My pocketbook bumped into them, and they all hit the floor, shattering. I tried to cover up the faux pas by gently kicking sawdust over them, but it was hard to hide the shards. Slightly embarrassing (to say the least).
But what a landscape! "Stunnnnning!", as my mother would say.
