Yesterday we went to the cinema to see the latest episode of the James Bond collection; Skyfall. After seeing all James Bond movies ever made, I think Skyfall is definitely one of the best.

It was great to eat, drink, talk and discuss with the makers of La Fontaine de La Pouyade, also it was interesting to note the extreme delicacy of La Fontaine de La Pouyade in a blind tasting compared to the Louis XIII and the …
