Oh, yum. I love champagne, but have it so rarely because it's so pricey. There are very good sparkling wines here in the Touraine, and they're much more economical. It's not the same as champagne, though.
wait - 75 degrees....is that a terrace that's exposed or is that a terrace that's the "inside" terrace, surrounded by windows....and if it's outside I need to move down by you!
wcs We usually go for Blanquette de Limoux or Saumur, especially if it is being mixed with something. Our friends provided the Champagne yesterday. We couldn't be rude and say decline a glass. :)
Our Juicy Life It was on an outdoor, south facing terrace just north of Béziers. No wind yesterday and bright sun, so their terrace was super warm! We drove through the Lot on Saturday and hit a huge snowstorm! Brrrr.....
On the other hand, I have started trying to calculate whether I can realise my dream of renting a cottage in Sete and have been wondering what the weather in late November might be like. Your photo is encouraging.
75 degrees, ah Lou Lou, dont remind me of what I am missing from my former home region! Cider and central heating here though sadly not even cider on Sunday though Trois Blaison Cremante de Limoux Friday night did the trick. Brittany bird x
Martha It was a cold day, but we were in a warm spot on their terrace. Today has been a bit colder. I don't want you to think it is always warm here in November! :)
Our Juicy Life Ok, we look forward to seeing you soon!
Cathy Wow, that is warm for this time of year. You were lucky! I hope you had a great time.
georgiegirl It can be warm here until January/February when it (usually) becomes really cold! We've eaten outside in the sun in mid-December.
Brittany Bird It was a perfect spot but our house was cold when we got home as we had turned the heat down. I would LOVE to be in central heating! Why no cider on Sunday??? D will have to bring you some Trois Blasons when he heads back up there. xx

But once in a while it's great to splurge.

Warmth and Champagne...just what we all need. :-)
That's sadistic.

I'm moving!
What a lovely day and champagne to boot! I spent Thanksgiving weekend at the Oregon coast where it was sunny and 65 degrees. Go figure.
I am jealous.

How lovely, it looks gorgeous- perfect with a glass of champagne.
