La Cité du Vin in Bordeaux: an universe of culture and senses 

Posted on   by secondolaura

An enormous aluminium and glass vinestock dominates the shore of Garonne river. It stands as a monument to innovation, to a glorious past, to the future awaiting us; a tribute to all the wines that have been poured from ancient times to nowadays; a shrine to man and nature and their most beautiful fruit: wine.

 Light and heat reflected in the Languedoc wines: La Minervois – Part I

Posted on   by secondolaura

Important decisions. G. “Let’s go. Tomorrow”. L. “Alright. Where are we going to?” G. “I don’t know, but we have to go. Any suggestion?” L. “You know where my instinct would lead me. If I were you I wouldn’t leave a wide margin of discretion” G. “It means that, for a change, our hearts will […]
