Salon des Vins - November 30, 2008

Day 4 - the last and final day for us. I was surprised at how crowded the wine expo was on Sunday.


Another use for a stroller...
Waiting with a full cart for the tram to take us home.

Day 3 at the wine expo...

Almost a full cart...a little more "work" to do.


Nicolai, Jean (pronounced Zhohn), and moi. Jean introduced Tom to the Salon des Vins when Tom was still commuting between Paris and NJ.

Another day, another wine to try.

After trying numerous champagnes, this vineyard was our favorite and they have a gorgeous label.




A full cart and another successful day.

Salon des Vins - November 27, 2008

The Salon des Vins is a wonderful way to learn about the different wine regions of France. Independent vineyards participate and you can sample all of their different wines, champagnes, cognacs, etc. So much fun and so many vineyards to explore!!

Enjoying a wonderful baguette with smoked ham.


I have no idea what this sign says, but Tom and Helene thought that it was hysterical.



Tom bought us wine glass holders that were on a string that we were supposed to wear around our necks. I only wore mine for this picture. :o)
