What's new for summer 2013 at Bistrot Les Tontons?

Gérald's search to introduce exciting new wines and artisanal produce is the philosophy behind 'Bistrot Les Tontons'.

Last weekend while representing the Domaine at a Salon du Vin, which brought together wine makers and artisans from across France, Gérald had the opportunity to sample a selection of tantalizing cheeses and cured meats (to be served: La Planche des Tontons), alongside a number of interesting organic wines which will join 'Les Tontons' 2013 summer wine selection.
