I picked this one up in St. Malo for about 8 euro. Wasn't expecting
much (read the label and thought" Domaine desolee!") but I was lusting for a Loire red and the price was right. It was actually a pretty good value lightish red but ripe clean and went well with the pork loin, I would buy it again but St. Malo is a bit of a trek!

None the worse for wear thankfully. St. Malo is also a very nice town to visit. I did a concert there last fall and had a free morning afterwards, very pretty to explore the ramparts. Joe I hope if you're that close in future, or coming through Paris, that you'll give me a shout. We could get together for a lunch at least, and perhaps find an interesting bottle to sample. -E |

But we were on a pretty tight schedule (cruise) . . .Now that the euro is at least back to where i used to thinnk it was high we will probably be back to France. My wife is a bit upset with me that my last two trips that really took in France were without her so I owe her big time. |

I sure empathize with your view of the zorro, too. By comparison it's pretty good, but that only serves to show how bad was bad... So another time I hope. -E |
