Last year we had a wonderful long weekend at a perfect hotel in France. […]. Here we ate simple but delicious food from the garden, sluiced down with the local wine, Menetou-Salon. This is Sancerre’ little brother, producing only one-seventh the quantity. But the Sauvignon Blanc grape is the same, and in a good year like this2004 from Domaine Teiller it is probably better than Sancerre, being slightly less flintyd more packed with flavour. It helped make our weekend even more memorable, and to you it’s just under a tenner.
