A very special Picpoul


















We had lunch at L'Embarcadère today. We first visited the restaurant a couple of years ago out of curiosity. It's not too far away at 30350 Cardet and it specialises in fish. The best thing, on both visits, were moules in a curry sauce. It is not inexpensive, but then fish restaurants around here are usually a bit pricey. Before I pass judgement I will need to go back again. However, what was outstanding was the wine. We had a gold medal winning Picpoul de Beauvignac from the cave cooperative at 34810 Pomerols. We will make a trip next week to find the cave.

Despite my rant about our plumber the other day, he turned up this afternoon and straightened my upside down tap. I gave him a few other jobs to do which he said that he will complete in July. Roll on July!
