What ODs do best
What ODs do best
Anthony Record MBE (S, 1956)  owns Domaine Gayda, a magnificent wine estate near Carcassonne in the Languedoc region of France. 20 ODs and their wives gathered together at the Domaine in the middle of May to savour the delights of the area and enjoy the conviviality and immediate friendship generated by our shared Bishops background.
 
Peter Elliott (W, 1967) and his wife Maddy have retired to the area and are experts on where to go, what to see and, crucially, what to drink. And they generously shared their knowledge and love of Carcassonne, and the surrounding area, with all of us who enjoyed tremendously what they had to recount of the region.
