Good news !
Whereupon, I shall demand that he and Cathy should invite me and my tribe to
dinner at Chez Tommasi, where he can show me a bottle or two of those
well-known and plentiful examples of *Burgundy* he quotes (Aligoté and
Sauvignon de St Bris) matched perfectly with some local cuisine.
Methinks he will need to start his search very soon - lest he be found
wanting !!!!!!!!!
Er, how about if I serve some REAL Burgundy. Who said B. Aligoté and
Sauvignon de St Bris is Burgundy? :-)
They are entitled to the Appellation — does that make them real or are
we in Velveteen Rabbit territory where feeling loved was necessary
before the poor toy rabbit became real?
