We stayed in a beautiful B&#38;B just outside Cramant, a small village in the middle of The Côte des Blancs. The house champagne was readily available in the fridge at €11/bottle.

		<title>Wine Auction – that sounds exciting!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At a friends birthday party some 5 years ago now I met a man who told me about a hobby of his, which was to go to wine auctions in the hunt for weird wines and bargains.
