Nice wines and Champagne even if I am not a connoisseur. And lovely cheese platter (Saint-Nectaire, Comté or Beaufort, Camembert, Coeur de Neuchatel? No blue cheese such as Fourme d'Ambert or Bleu d'Auvergne?). I hope you enjoyed
Best wishes

Chateau Prieure-Lichine 2001 and Chateau Chasse-Spleen 2009

The memories are what wine creates.
Drinking an inexpensive Rose sitting at a cafe in St Floren "Corsica" will register in your memory fore a life time. The next sip of the same Rose 10 years later sitting at a cafe in Paris will evoke some great memories.
