True to their habits, and still under the leadership of Mr. Philippe Duval, its president, our friends from SAQ once again organized a trip filled with visits and tastings in the Bordeaux region, and they stopped at Brane!

As always, the visit was fun and entertaining…the Québécois enjoy the good things in life and are excellent tasters and it is always a delight for us to host them.
This time, we’d planned two surprises for them – a Brane 1953 and a Brane 1964!

In return, as an expression of thanks, Michel St Jean, photographer (and business manager!) gave two extraordinary extra-large photos to Henri Lurton. You can admire his works on his website http://michelstjeanphoto.com/about/ -and check out his series on wild geese at http://www.flickr.com/photos/43013025@N07/sets/72157622459353617/

The whole group with their backs to the light protected from the sun…it’s 30°C outside!

And on the menu, concocted by Lacoste…some real delights straight from the family cellar…
