ExperienceFamily & champagne
Last stop of the weekend was a personal one. I actually have distant relatives who produce their own champagne, still bearing our shared last name. As a kid, we used to visit once a year and I even stayed longer three times to help with the vendange (yearly picking of the grapes) in my late teens and twenties. Now, all the connecting members (3 generations ago) have sadly passed away, but we are still considered family. So when we drove up, we were welcomed by gathered family, two freshly baked pies, cold bubbles and lots of laughter and shared memories. The perfect end to a wonderful weekend.
