Every time I have been to France, I have had a marvelous time.

Every guest we’ve hosted from France has been marvelous.
Today, we are hosting guests from France. Winemakers from Burgundy. For lunch. And wine.
I love this.

Sorry to have missed you. Left a half bottle of 2003 Mazzoni and 2003 Lytton Springs. Hope you had a chance to taste some.
Will bring back the 1986 Harvest shirt.
Back on 3/10 for the component tasting and will bring 2 more bottles of 2003 wine.
Interesting, tasting Monebello wines with Burgundy winemakers. Just got back from 3 weeks in NZ and Australia. I should bring some of those up on 3/10.
Sorry I missed you as well Jeff, but I guess as you can now see from this post, I was a tad busy! But, thanks for bringing the 03s up, I hope they showed well, and I look forward to seeing you on the 10th!
