France, Day 5, Puligny-Montrachet


This morning we woke up to a cold pouring rain.  I celebrated D Day by reading "The Longest Day" on the bow as we sailed from La Forge' to Gissey.  About lunch time the rain broke and we reached Gissey.  From here we drove through the heart of white wine company to Olivier Leflaive in Puligny-MontrachetPuligny-Montrachet<46.946280, 4.7533969>.  The place does a wine tasting lunch.  I'm not sure I'd recommend it, the wait staff did a great job explaining the areas the differnt wines came from and it was interesting to see the vertical flights from villages only a few kilometers apart.
