Do Sommelier Trainees Dream of the Médoc Marathon?

Hi everyone! A huge thank you for all the wonderful advice regarding the Médoc Marathon application the other day. Despite all your help, the registration battle was fierce, and I completely missed out—I’m currently staring at a "red light"!

However, since I’ve already booked my flights from Japan to France, I’m not giving up and will give it my all in the upcoming second round of entries. 😢

That brings me to my main point: if anyone happens to have managed to secure extra spots, would you be willing to share two with us? (To be honest, we are a group of seven... but we’ll take what we can get!) If anyone is open to a discussion, I would be so grateful if you could reach out.

Also, just in case the marathon falls through and it turns into a regular sightseeing trip, I’m looking for recommendations! If you know any great spots in Bordeaux for delicious or rare wines, or must-see tourist attractions, please let me know. 😂
