Northern Rhone Vally.

Well we finally got to the Northern Rhone. Unfortunatly it's raining
today and late in the year so most places are closed. We did manage to
sniff out a few places. Chateaubourg & tasting room staff. Then Dom. De
Fauterie with pics of tank room, bottleing room & staff who was kind
enough to show us around.

What you see on the maps still doesn't quite match what you see on the
road. Think you are going right then all road signs disappear! Phone
got a little wet today with the rain, but still works. One key is a
little sticky! Wish it had a spelling checker!!
