just an average week drinking wine before noon, pretending to know the difference between merlot and malbec, and taking in all the great views! thanks for a wonderful week,
here's what i was up to:
1. wine tasting and tour at chateau malescasse.
2. pastries from a local bakery - so dang delicious!
3 & 4. views in st. emilion.
5. late night snacks in the lounge - brought right to our table. snacks always seemed to come at the right time. drinks were super on point
6 & 7. unique excursion in blaye. i'll write more about it on the blog. we had fun learning about wine and made a group painting. mine is the pink blob
8. surprise! enjoying my wine at chateau malescasse.
9 & 10. city of wine!! an interactive wine museum in bordeaux. had fun smelling and listening and watching and tasting. great views from the top. fun place to learn about wine. avalon includes a free tasting at the end.
