We had our usual autumn break in France, with two additional stops. On the drive in we stayed in Nuits Saint Georges and met up with three of our friends from 'Het Derde Glas' for some wine tasting and a nice dinner. The next day we continued to our house for a week of regular activities of cycling and work around the house. It was beautiful weather, with autumn colours everywhere.
In the middle of the week we drove to Gigondas for our yearly pelgrimage to the southern Rhone vineyards with Frits, with an afternoon of wine tasting, a dinner at Les Florets, and a hike in the area.
After a few more relaxing days at the house we had to return home, and will probably only return in the spring.
