Vote(z) Vin!
Vin: du belge ce samedi et du bon. Van Vlaanderen et de Wallonie: bulles, wit et rouge. Santé! Gezondheid!
Vote: il y a des bons vins blancs, jaunes, rouges, noirs... Mais si c'est brun, c'est passé et infâme. C'est comme en politique: la politique des chemises brunes est juste bonne pour l'égoût. Ce dimanche, votons démocratique. L'extrême droite, c'est bouchonné!

Cheers!Mig

Slow Food? No, slow wine from Slo...venia!
No joking. Movia is a member of the slow food movement and a producer of top wines from the Slovenian border with Italy, the "Brda" region (easier to pronounce when you're freezing cold!).
Have a look at their website www.movia.si to check out the beauty of the estate and vineyards, and -if you can read slovenian- to gather extra information.
Movia wines have lots of character. So you know what to do to discover them: see you at Mig's this Saturday the 16th from 11 to 7pm.
