The 2007 Vendagnes

A collection of about 100 photos taken by Céline and Nico in September 2007. We hope you enjoy this close up view of the grape picking season, the photos were taken whilst they were harvesting and offer a unique persepctive of the day to day life of the grape pickers; images of the hard work, moments of relaxation and of course the vine-yards.

Céline and Nico spent most of their time in the vineyards of Savigny les Beaune but also Pommard and the higher hills which we call "Les Hautes Côtes".

Céline and Nico will soon be travelling across Argentina, so we would like to wish them both Bon Voyage.

First class transport as the grape pickers are transfered to a vineyard.
