I was lucky enough to combine an AGM for one of our vineyard investments with a weekend in Bordeaux with my best friend Sarah. The meeting was very interesting and enabled me to see the newly planted vineyard and sample some of the wines already produced. This was followed by a lovely lunch and a chance to chat with fellow investors as well as the winemakers.
The rest of the weekend was for eating, drinking and discovering the city of Bordeaux which is beautiful. It is also very flat and, therefore, popular with cyclists. We took the opportunity to go on a gourmet bicycle tour of the city where we sampled foie gras, wine, oysters and chocolate whilst seeing some of the major monuments of the city. It is definitely a city to revisit as it wasn't possible to do everything I wanted in short weekend.
The Cité du Vin is a must for people interested in wine, its history and all things to do with wine.
