We've just filmed a 4k city walk in Bordeaux and this helped to inspire
and orientate us. It's lovely to discover how we can share and learn so
much from each other. Thank you.

Anyone else think it's a mistake selling a french vineyard and chateau to a chinese buyer?

What items are in high demand in France that you can not get but is available in the US? I’m coming to Bordeaux for a few months and want to bring some things. Any help? Thanks in advance.

You guys drink THAT much? Holy smokes

[JeckoSTARlaloo]

The Chinese vineyard owners talking about making wines that the Chinese tourists will like, while they are in France. What the heck so European cities are like some kind of Disneyland for them now? I'm afraid of what will happen to cultural countries if they continue this dependency on the Chinese market.

Tom Burges Watson = hot lookingwould have loved seeing something that didnt involve wine wine wine wine.
oh well

Soon to lose it's biggest market outside it's own, the UK.. And anyway, English wine tastes better anyway, due to the changing climate... We're gonna call it "champagne" now we're out of the EU, we can do what we want.
