Wine tasting





After the grand tour it was time to sample the champagne. The cellar was a chilly temp that felt good. The dust was a different story because it started my allergies. Just coughing instead of continuous sneezes. Boy was I glad to taste the bubbling champagne.

Moet and Chandon




The day was picture perfect. The town was so picturesque. It was somewhere you would like to stay for awhile. I learned the history of champagne or Moet and Chandon's history of champagne making. A monk, Dom Perignon, discovered champagne by mistake. What a fantastic mistake. I think knowing the history made the wine tasting better. My mouth is still bubbling with the taste of the champagne.
