first of the summer wine

2003 Savennieres Clos du Papillon from Domaine des Baumard (Loire)


Summer always feels like a new idea in London.


Yesterday the weather man on the BBC said it was the end of the Summer weather.


*After three days of sunshine*


Well, I don't give up that easily!


This can't be the last of the summer wine, it's only June - glamdammit!


I want the first of the summer wines first...


And what is more Summer than a butterfly (papillon)?


This wine is sourced from a butterfly-shaped vineyard in the Loire and is full of pear, peach and lime characters. All it needs is a park and some sunshine...


Or just forget that. Use your imagination.


It is London, after all. The weather just is... weather.
