To
go to Bordeaux and not sample the wine would be remiss, but
there is a lot more to this area than just wine. This is a journey
around a beautiful and memorable area dotted with vineyards.
We stop off at many chateaux where the owners show off their
traditional skills and pass through the extraordinary landscape
and fishing villages of the Bas Medoc. The vineyards continue
as the scenery changes to beautiful wooded hillsides as we
pass through St Emilion and Bergerac. The river is wide but
full of islands and rapids, and the medieval Bastides, both
French and English, at St. Foy Le Grand, Lalinde and Limeuil
remind the visitor of the fantastic history of this area.
After a day on the saddle what better way to indulge yourself
in guilt free dinners all washed down by the finest local
wines.
