What else do you do in January?
Which wine goes with Galette des Rois? The expert opinion is a Cremant de Bordeaux. Wendy and I tasted three wines, one dry white, one liquoreux and a crémant. The bubbles won hands down!

Pessac Leognan Chateau Pape Clement and Haut Bailly
Visits at Chateau Pape Clement start with the history of the property. Each chateau has a story to tell. Rich in architecture and culture, Bordeaux has so much to offer the wine enthusiast. American-owned Haut Bailly is an exceptional cru and they have an exciting new project! They have just hired a new chef and can propose lunches and dinners for small groups. A rare treat in this area!
