    Liebe Karin,
    danke für den Blogbesuch!

    Ja so ein gemütlicher Lesesessel ist etwas Wunderbares!
    Ich hab ja auch so einen.
    Eigentlich sollte ich mein Haus auch mal vorstellen.
    Nur bin ich mit den Aufnahmen nie zufrieden.
    Da merk ich immer wie schwer es ist gute Interiorfotografien zu machen.

    Eure Weinschätze sind ja famos!
    So viele wohlklingende Namen!

    Einen angenehmen Weingenuss und ein ebensolches Wochenende!
    Amicalement!

    I love red wine and nothing beats a nice Sauternes after dinner. Love the ancient looking bottles talk about atmosphere while you're enjoying!

    Have a wonderful Sunday!

    Hi Karin!
    I came at Trish's suggestion, glad I did!!!!!I think the cat likes wine, maybe he tore at some of the labels????? I notice the tear in the Petrus label is in the shape of a heart?????Hmmmm... Great post I am now thirsty. Maryanne ;)

    Bonjour Karin! J'aime Saint-Emilion! C'est meilleur en France! I wish I were there! Avec toi!

    We shared some bottles of red with friends this weekend, but none were as good as an aged Saint-Emilion!

    Have a lovely week!

    Hi Maryanne,
    Thank you very much for your visit and comment.

    No, Oskar the cat did not tore the labels, they just somewhat gone with the time.......
    He gave up drinking red wine a wile ago, ha-ha....

    Cheers to you! Karin

    Dear Debra,
    You're right - a good Sauternes is perfect for dessert! But also nice for aperitif late afternoon!
