LE BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU-VILLAGES De MANOIR DU CARRA Et Proprietaire Frederic Sambardier Est Arrive Ici Aujourd'hui! Venez Nous Voir VITE! Bonnes feres a tous!! TONY
Fun! Fun! Fun! I just walk into the store and Louis that works here tells me that a customer in the back of the store is looking for some Pinot. I walk up to her, passing Hans our regular customer and Louis and ask her if I can help her? Mary, that's her name, tells me she's looking for some pinot s[elled : " Pineau " and do we have any? I turn back to where Hans and Louis are standing and I say : " Yes we have some Pineau des Charentes ", and I go to reach for the bottle of PIERRE FERRAND, $31.99 from France's Cognac region. I picked grapes there for a harvest back in 1979 I believe it was!?! Anyway, I asked Mary how many stores she had been in, and she said that her friend on Capitol Hill had inquired and they told her to Google it and find the distributor. Mary was so happy to find it, her expression and smile said it all! I am thrilled we have it as Mary and her four other friends go on yearly hikes there in Cognac and every evening stop and have a glass or more of Pineau des Charentes. They are local from D.C. and are getting together this Saturday to celebrate and need to have some Pineau des Charentes. I told Mary about the Beaujolais Nouveau that's available today. I got a bottle of the MANOIR DU CARRA Beaujiolais Villages 2013, $10.99 a bottle, and showed it to her. She said : " No French, only Spanish " could she speak! She was still smiling broadly. She had to call her friend to to tell her the " good news "! What fun, everyone happy and she bought the bottle of MANOIR DU CARRA 2013 Beaujolais Villages Nouveau to enjoy this Saturday with the other four hikers this Saturday. What fun, what timing, what a great evening that will be for their reunion here in Washington D.C. with MANOIR DU CARRA Beaujolais Villages Nouveau and some also excellent Pineau des Charentes from PIERRE FERRAND!
