Everything will be delicious and homemade. Come and enjoy a beautiful vista and wonderful food with UU friends!

Margaux? St. Émilion? Pomerol? Grave? With slides from our recent trip as a backdrop, John will share his practical knowledge of how to buy good Bordeaux wines on a budget, with a tasting of three reds and a white. Then we will have an informal supper where we will pair those wines with small-plate tastings of the cuisine of southwestern France (lamb in bordelaise sauce? mussels? roasted vegetables? cheeses? pastries?)
