Little Grey Fergie

Mono Monday shot taken at our local garden centre.
Part of the entrance display.
I think this is a Ferguson tractor. Designed by Harry Ferguson, and manufactured from 1946 - 1956.  Known as the Little Grey Fergie.
( If I'm wrong I'm sure a fellow blipper will put me right!)
I don't usually buy plants from this place, as I prefer smaller garden nurseries, but today I wanted some compost to plant the potatoes.

Wine Club this evening, and it is member's choice.
I am presenting a wine from the Loire region of France.
One of our favorite wines is white Sancerre, but it is quite expensive.
My wine this evening is 
Reuilly, Cuvee Nathalie 2014. Wine maker Nathalie Lafond, who has now taken over the running of the domaine from her father, Claude.
This is her signature cuvee, made from a selection of the best parcels of vines, and is a match for top quality Sancerre without the premium price tag.
Grape variety is Sauvignon Blanc. We like this wine as it isn't as sharp and acidic as the sauvignon wines of New Zealand, but still fresh and fruity. Lovely on it's own as an aperitif or partner with seafood, or salmon.
Bought at Majestic Wine.
Price £11.99, but on special offer at £8.99.
I just hope everyone else enjoys it too!
