The venue is the beautiful sea side village of Sanury sur Mer. The tents wrap around the port and continue into the streets.
There were 80 producers and for 10 Euros you got a glass and had a chance to speak to the producers and make appointments to visit the vineyards for further discussions.
The entrance was decorated and many items were for sale. Had to buy a tee shirt for wine tasting, Just Rose!
You can see the top of the tents along the quay. The blue sky is awesome!
As you might imagine there are clever uses of roses and pink balloons every where!!
The day began cool but by 10:00 it was time to put away sweaters. Bob O'Neal, Steve and I are seriously tasting and making notes. hanging the glass around your neck lets you make notes.
The crowds were large but with so many stations and the fact they were spread out it was easy to
taste what you wanted.
The whole town gets involved and all the store fronts are decked out in Pink.
This AOC Pallete is one of the smallest AOC's near Nice. Lovely wine!
It is a great way to taste a number of wines in one place.
