I Love Bordeaux, too bad Mother Nature Doesn’t

You know I love all that is France. I love Paris in the Springtime, Val d’Isere in winter and Le Languedoc all year round. I also love Bordeaux. It is just unfortunate for them that the are located in such a rough and unwelcoming part of France. I guess it is better than Champagne, where it is so cold that they cannot ripen their grapes- but that is another story.

In any case, my countrymen in Bordeaux have sustained a bit of a natural disaster. I propose a moment of silence and I want them to know that we in Le Languedoc will set aside even more of our wine this year to ship over to them in tanks to make their vin a bit more, how do you say, agreeable.
