She took WSET (Wine and Spirits Education Trust) wine courses and traveled to Bordeaux to explore the city and its appellations and discovered Fronsac (on the right bank, Episode 593 is on Fronsac!), which captured her heart. Photo: Sally Evans. Courtesy of Ch George7   She went for it \u2013 she bought a small plot in 2015 and decided to build a new ch\u00e2teau from scratch. She found the right plot, and the right people and that ch\u00e2teau today is the award-winning Ch\u00e2teau George7. She makes two other reds besides her main wine and a white Bordeaux.     Sally has offered us a discount if you order 12 bottles of wine to be shipped to you from www.chateaugeorge7.com -- you get 15% off and the price on the site includes everything -- wine, shipping, taxes, etc. Code WFNP is good no matter what country you order the wine from! Chip in with a friend or buy a case for yourself!

It's a practical guide to help people reimagine their lives. Here's the blurb from Sally on what it covers: "I lead you through:  the process of defining your dream, dealing with those inevitable fears then building the confidence to take the leap, and flourish in the new chapter, no matter what your midlife move entails. \u200b\u200bIt shares the realities of a major midlife change - my journey from corporate life and Mum, to creating a wine ch\u00e2teau in Bordeaux from scratch. I hope my story and the practical guidance in this book inspire you and other women (and why not men?) to embrace your midlife transformations with confidence and passion."   Sally was on the podcast previously discussing her project with Wendy Narby, Wineand2Veg, about how to pair Bordeaux with vegetarian food.
