Fuzzy Muzzy

The guy looks fuzzy, the wine is not. Good tasty Meursaults.
 Domaine Bouzereau is worth finding. They guy is very funny, opinionated, and interesting.
 This was a food station at the hall that we visited
 In a restaurant in Pommard, was this "grande Dame" taking lunch. She looks so perfectly coiffed, I had to ask Nikki to take a pic. And Nikki did take a pic, to capture the moment. So quintessentially french, a grand dame.
 Inside Pommard, the hard work continued.
 And there was quite a crowd indeed.
 The food was good though, and long queues to get it. But, it was worth it, as the food was spectacular.
 Inside the tasting area, were many different wineries. For us, we liked Domaine Lejeune. Just as well, as we were renting an apartment from the owner's nephew. Lejeune is a seriously good wine, of good repute, and worth tracking down, or even visiting if you get a chance to do so, in Burgundy. Really nice people.

 A menu of wines for sale we came across

 The Italian cousins were a bit late to the testing, but arrived in style.
 Our crazy bus driver, complete with Doc Maarten boots, in patent, and regular leather, depending upon the day. Wicked crazy driver. Almost got us killed numerous times :-)
