We got the impression that most of the chateaux are associated with the wineries. Some did seem to be private residences, and some looked like they did double duty. The rain has been a bit of a surprise. Honestly we don't know what is normal, but this seems to be a wet summer. Current forecast is for rain through Fri.!Dave and Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08367299165355402867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290296686310388012.post-18118537815187276872011-07-17T11:18:10.105-07:002011-07-17T11:18:10.105-07:00Nice real estate.

(A wine tasting would be awesome in one of those beauties.) You mention rain frequently. Is this a surpise or did you expect it?Diananoreply@blogger.com
