Located in the village of Mouleydier, Château les Merles is a four-starred hotel with a GaultMillau restaurant. I had the opportunity to stay there and interview owners Jan and José van Grinsven.
Domaine du Haut-Pécharmant is one of the leading estates in Pécharmant, an appellation in the Bergerac wine region. This rustic red is perfect with confit de canard and hearty autumn dishes.
