Grillades en famille ou soirées entre amis, pique-nique en bord de rivière ou apéro sur la plage, toutes les occasions sont bonnes pour trinquer aux plaisirs estivaux ! Parce que vous aimez la vie comme on l’aime, 20h33 se met en quatre pour pimenter votre été : des blancs très frais, des rosés acidulés, des […]
Obviously it wasn’t made in Bordeaux. The city didn’t invent food and wine matching. All I’m looking to do here is point out that everyone forgets two massive things about Bordeaux when they think about it as a big name in wine. Firstly, the city is magnificent! And secondly, so is the food!
I saw a funny little place. It’s not funny in the laugh out loud kind of sense. It’s just that it’s not really a village at all. There’s a church, a shop, and a shed load of some of the most prestigious Châteaux in the whole of Bordeaux!
We’ve all had those Thursdays. You slump in the couch when you get back home from work. It’s been a shocker of a week, and you’ve still got one day to go. Well Friday’s Friday isn’t it?! Time to crack open a bottle of wine and vege infront of the tele. But are you really […]
Avec sa situation privilégiée au cœur de la cite médiévale, le Logis de la Cadène s’affiche comme le restaurant le plus ancien de Saint-Emilon. Institution courue par les visiteurs autant que par les locaux, la maison a été reprise en 2013 par la famille De Boüard de Laforest avec le souci du détail qu’on apprécie […]

I started a chat with a guy I play cricket with here in London. He’s a New Zealander who…well…let’s just say has his opinions. I’m happy with that, I mean what’s the point in having an opinion if you’re not willing to say it out loud when talking about something. Sometimes I even agree with […]
Right ladies and gents, I need your help now. I’ve done the first wine tasting over in the UK, and it went pretty well I reckon. People seemed to be shuffling out fairly merry at the end of the night, and as far as I’m concerned that’s job done!
Whenever I talk to people about Bordeaux wines, their minds usually drift towards expensive reds that rich people buy. Well hopefully over the last few weeks and months you’ve begun to realize that there are amazing reds from across Bordeaux that fit every budget going. But we’re still talking about reds. Do they not make […]
Le chef David Charrier, du restaurant Les Belles Perdrix, situé sur le vignoble du Château Troplong Mondot à Saint-Emilion, nous a concocté un plat sur-mesure qui ne pouvait s’accorder qu’avec un millésime de la propriété. C’est pourquoi exceptionnellement, nous ne proposons aujourd’hui qu’un seul vin pour cet accord, mais quel vin ! Accord Mets / […]
