Happy Chardonnay Day!

Thought you might enjoy this view from the top of the Hill of Corton in the famed Côte d’Or, site of some of the world’s most exquisite Chardonnays. This little scenic spot helps me ‘reset’ when in Burgundy – Center of the Universe.

P.S.:

Honored to be back in Seattle this Memorial Day Weekend to help judge the 14th Annual Rose Revival at Salty’s on Alki tonight, including some tasty Chardonnays, and more than a few international producers.
