Wine of the Day July 29, 2011

What I love about France is that no matter where you go to eat, you can usually have great wine.  Many of the Bistros, Cafes and Brasseries we visited in Paris did not even have a generic "house wine".  Most places offer at least six or seven red and white wine selections.  On July 29, we went out in search of a good cafe, and came across a neat little place that was on a street that any city in north america would call an alley.  Kaitlin tried escargots for the first time and loved them (much to our....and her...surprise).  We ordered this nice bottle of 2009 Marquis de Sainville, which was another Bordeaux from the Graves region.  It was nice, but not nearly as good as the 2005 from the previous day.
