Jurade de Saint Emilion II, a photo from Aquitaine, West

Photographer's Note

Revived in 1948, the current Jurade takes its inspiration from the charges and privileges granted over the centuries. Every year, it proclaims the "Jugement du Vin Nouveau" on the third Sunday in June and the "Ban des Vendanges" on the third Sunday in September. All over the world it organizes tastings and induction ceremonies for the greater glory and prosperity of the wines
of Saint-Emilion. Several chancelleries have been opened abroad: London and York in England, in Flanders and Wallonia for Belgium, and in Texas for the whole of North America.

Bonjour Claude,

Your photograph is well composed, and embraces the rich red colors of the vestments. The young man standing sentry is not impressed, but has learned to sleep standing up (perhaps he is a university student.)
Warm regards,

Bulent
