As Vin-expo bordeaux is approaching towards us, let’s have a recap what we did last Fête de Printemps, 2015.
This uttermost spring festival of Saint-Emilion Jurade, under the sky and gazing the stars above and around you. Yes, exactly, that night, the big stars, actors, comedians, that we watch them on a big screen was under one same roof, and next to you.
This is the Grand opening ceremony of Vin-expo which is one of the largest spring festival organized by the Saint-Emilion Jurade, in the heart of the vineyard and the city.
Everything was magical that evening, after the church ceremony, we all were very thirsty, June indeed, is the reason, we marched slowly, heading towards the patio of Château Clos-fourtet to freshenup ourselves with cocktails, champagne, and bites.
Live jazz music was indeed smooth, fresh, subtile yet fun. The ambiance was lovely, and just perfect, next to the vineyard in the open air, lovely breeze and music.
