Harvset has gone well todate,with warm days and cool nights, grapes have good sugar levels and loads of juice. All that is left to pick is the cabernet franc which will be picked by the W.A.G.S of Brive rugby club this Sunday comming, 12th of October, who all would like to experience the pleasure of hand picking at Domaine Du Merchien. They also intend to press the grapes the old fashioned way for a promotional shot for the club, so watch this space for the photos, it should all be good fun??
On a more serious note we have once again been selected for the guide Hachette 2009 with our 2006 blend VAT665 which will be released in 2009 so watch this space for details.
