Rocking the wine cellar!

Touring the vineyards in the Corbieres region in the fall is always a much-awaited, special time of the year, but one cannot expect the stunning and wonderful scenario Chateau Valmy offers. Its vineyards and grounds are so beautifully manicured and landscaped!  The view from the adjacent restaurant terrace is stunning. You’re only a stone’s throw from Collioure and Argeles, meaning not far from Perpignan and the spanish border. Where else can you go to see the Mediterranean sea, the coastline, the Pyrenees mountains and the vineyard at its best?

I was completely in awe when I discovered this incredible wine cellar design. The blue LED lights, the shape, and the way it’s incorporated into the rest of the house is truly spectacular.

Such a strange encounter for my poor iPhone 4!
