Miraval -- Could it be?

In between packing and cleaning up the Tahoe house, preparing to go down to San Diego for the rest of the summer, I had the TV on and once in a while something will catch my attention. Yesterday, there was news about Brangelina (Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt) moving to the South of France. Some TV show showed a quick photo of the Chateau they are supposed to have rented (or bought?) and it was called Miraval. Hmmm.. I thought that the name sounded familiar. I asked Matt if he remembered the name of the Chateau next to George and Solvig's winery at the South of France. Well.. I sort of knew that he doesn't have any clue but I told him the name and asked if it sounded familiar. Yep...No clue.

So this morning, I was scanning my early morning internet news and saw the name again. And this time it did say it was in the town of Brignol...Voila!!!!

I have seen this estate!!! Well...not inside but outside. With all the olive trees and the vineyard. I even took a short video of it as we were told it was Cher's estate. I immediately told Matt. I was so excited and he just looked at me like I am some deranged woman... "Who?"

Oh well... what do men, know!? When we were in Cannes last year, he refused to stop so I could do some "stargazing".... Here's the VERY VERY SHORT video of MIRAVAL..




Anyway....Happy 4th to everybody!
