The Maison

Often, also, the place for sharing and discussion.

Inside, outside, upstairs and down,

Space shared and also hidden. Is it a labyrinth?
To find yourself, sometimes you must first become lost…

this simple, almost childlike
yet compelling desire to make great wines

Epilogue
“The only true voyage of discovery, the only fountain of Eternal Youth, would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes, to behold the universe through the eyes of another of a hundred others, to behold the hundred universes that each of them beholds, that each of them is.”
The Prisoner: Remembrance of Things Past, Vol. 5
— Marcel Proust, translated by C.K Moncrief.
