Wine country

View over the Lot valley from Bélaye
My brother and his wife joined us for new year's eve and the first week of January. A good time for some sightseeing and going to the Lot valley to buy the famous Cahors wine, Malbec as it should be. We usually go to Chateau Latuc, run by a Belgian family. Very much recommended.
Their (pricey) white wines, which are very unusual in the Cahors area, are comparable with good Burgundys.
The picture is from Bélaye, a superb viewing point.
