Hippopotame




The mascot of the bed and breakfast, as well as, the labels on the wine bottles is a picture of a hippopotamus. This is because Renaud’s favorite animal is a hippopotamus. His parents would read him a children’s book when he was growing up that had a hippopotamus in it. He also still has his first stuffed animal of a hippo, and the house is decorated with figurines of hippos. I think it’s really neat how they have that mark on their wine bottles. I really like being on a vineyard that may not be as high class as some of the vineyards my friends are staying at, but my host family is so nice and really care about their wine and welcoming everyone that comes to stay here.
