This is slightly off topic, but I studied at the University of Bordeaux while I was in college. The other American college kids in my class and I were fortunate to have a raging oenophile and medievalist as a student advisor and as such were treated to tours and visits to many of the greatest houses in France, including Maison Cliquot, Moët, Château Greysac, Château Bourgneuf and many others that I no longer remember off the top of my head. The most memorable of these trips included attending the annual Jurade (https://vins-saint-emilion.com/en/ambassadors/the-jurade/) at the Sanctuaire Troglodyte de Saint Emilion one chilly, foggy night nearing Halloween (https://www.saintemilion-unesco.com/parcours-decouverte/saint-emilion-place-du-marche-vue-de-leglise-monolithe/). I love that country and her people deeply. Bon voyage, Rob!
.. I have about the worst case of the Syndrome & both hands, Rob + both thumbs with Gamekeeper’s Thumb.. & ain’t no doubt - ‘LifeStyle Induced - Wear & Tear 🦎🏴☠️
Good heavens! I had never heard of the issue until the television commercials aired. Thank you for enlightening me. And what a delightful champagne, although for some reason my father preferred Moët & Chandon. 🍾🥂

Excellent post! Wonderful experiences, indeed. My wife and I have shared 57 trips to Europe and UK.

The French procedure is the best I have found.

Your dad has good taste. We’re grateful for our traveling and the opportunities to try more options.
