A perfect wine moment.

I am just back from dinner with the couple who run my place, and a perfect wine moment here in Preignac; a 1937 Chateau Gillette Sauternes. Parfait. Sharp reminder after a healthy measure of their 2009 Chateau des Eyrins Margaux, that work starts early tomorrow. But there is always time to mention that my fellow harvesters today thought I was ten years younger than I am. The Bordeaux light is clearly incredible with Autumn just beginning. Not an awful day at all. Sleep well.
