16th Arrondissement - Final Night in Paris

 We spent our 2nd to final night in Paris in the 16th - an upscale neighborhood in the northwest portion of the city. It includes the location of Victor Hugo’s hotel where he wrote Les Mis & the Hunchback of Notre Dame. We also visited the St. James Hotel where we had a drink at the Library bar, which is a beautiful mansion turned hotel. We then finished the night at the Maison Russe, an upscale Russian restaurant and bar that was very cool.

To top off our tasting, Didier opened up a bottle of '78 Pinot that was amazing.
