Lately.....Summertime in Bourgogne.


Wine hunting season has begun, and taking it easy this year. Always looking for what's new and exclusive in California. 
Taking it easy this summer. San Francisco really kept me busy. This is the time to come back to the countryside and explore.

Les Pintos



Focusing on my current clients, and introducing our wine tour guest to a new experience. Our guest from airbnb, vrbo, our La Maison du Pont www.jeuxdessaisons.com website, and new facebook visitors are booking and we are excited to share to fun wine tasting locations.

 



Interaction the winemakers, group fun and wine, sips and tips, while drinking responsibly, and stuffing our mouths with perfectly paired French CHEESE! 

I'm coming across super Organic, hand crafted to perfection, small production(600-900 cases), and being introduced to new methods and fresh thinking.




Dinner with friends and sharing information about wine and food is always appreciated. xo








Sidenote: Dieselle has been a very happy girl.... :)



 Fun to reconnect with the amazing winemakers I import. Taking my houseguest on Gothic wine tours, shipping back exotic treasures, sharing a world of ancient architecture, while drinking wine........in France. Whew! This is the time I am able to relax before the Fall/Winter Grind. Looking forward to the magic of finding that taste, that smell, that Hello Lover look when you hold up you glass and spin to admire the color. This is my time to slow the hustle, and remind myself that all of the running around in San Francisco was worth the push. 
There are so many aspects of this world of wine. 
It's not the pay, it is the lifestyle. 


The Bohemian way of living a nomadic existence, and it's the fantastic adventure that keeps my obsession in the game. OK it is a little Hard work, and the paper work is redonk...and I mean....cra! 
But when you start to seeing your passion take off a little more and more....that feeling of wtf slipping away?!? It is indeed satisfaction. 
When you resist the doubt and the doubting.
 (Eye roll) 
I laugh when I repeat to myself and hubby, 
"I don't know why I'm doing this?! But, I truly love the thrill and enjoy the ride of the unknown."


Ambitious... trusting my instinct, keeping the goals, and believing always in the impossible. #blackgirlmagic #believingindreams 

Today, just relaxing to a superb glass of wine.
Happy questions and sips and tips always welcomed.
Please Comment below for wine chat and Burgundy,FR. 



Believing in new connections, grateful for savvy networking, other wine geeks who appreciate unique products in their establishments.....Thank you. Learning more all the time, living in France part time, and being completely open has got me this far. Also belonging to a secret society of professional winos is pretty cool too. 

Helloooo Summer! 2 be continued.
