So no vendanges this year, but we still get our allocation of wine!<BR/><BR/>It was a bit sad because the vines (Carignan) were older than we are! The yield had dwindled to almost nothing though, and it will be replanted with a trendier variety ... Syrah or grenache.<BR/><BR/>Off-topic, but I was amazed to see in the paper today that the Aude now has about as much acreage of wines as it had in 1850! Parts of the Minervois seem to be particularly hard-hit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-38496097738854462132008-10-13T19:05:00.000+02:002008-10-13T19:05:00.000+02:00VeronicaThanks for the resto recommendation!
