We walk down the lane of Mareuil-sur-Aÿ through the old stone entrance into a large courtyard filled with sunshine. The Chateau in the background is a majestic site, and to the East of the courtyard is a beautiful cylindrical stone building facing into the square. Brandon and I mix and mingle and meet people from around the World. Only Magnums are served with a crescendoing effect throughout the evening, starting with the Brut, to Rose, to 2007’s and then the magnificent Billecart Cuvee 200. We party well into the night…
