Winter Sunshine In The Vines
Its nearly mid feb and no snow yet,so the prunning is going well. The cabernet franc behind the house is finished with just the dead wood to remove and then tie down.
When the weather is like this you can't beat it. We are sure that some really cold weather will arrive before winter is over,probably late Feb early March but we will just wait and see?

Mulled wine on Xmas eve at the Saint Antonin Market
We raised 250 euros for charity split between ARC and Breast Cancer Campaign
Sarah provided the wine and the recipe and Karen provided the amusement
Next time we will have to be prepared for the rush at 11am (maybe we can borrow the stove in the Sejour)
