Confirmed it through the grapevine

Brangelina drink to life on an organic vineyard 2

Back in August, we hinted at the possibility that Brad and Ange were looking to sample some eco-friendly wineries. But now we've heard official word (through the grapevine) that they've chosen a lovely organic variety in the south of France.

The Jolie-Pitts have purchased Château Miraval, a 1,000-acre property featuring two swimming pools, two gyms, 20 fountains, a lake, a moat, and a lush organic vineyard.

The $60 million estate also includes 35 bedrooms -- presumably enough to house Maddox, Zahara, Pax, Shiloh, twin #1, twin #2, and the 29 other children the Brangelina clan have on order.

    ah, l'histoire!The place has a fascinating history, apparently, touching on all kinds of important big themes in Western Europe.  (See "domaine" on the website.)  Not every house in Europe can post a plaque saying, "Saint Thomas Aquinas slept here."  And no doubt there is an interesting story to be told, about how it passed from being a monastery in the 13th century to a ducal residence in the 15th.
    So if RedWing is up for the gardener's job, I would not mind applying for the position of flakey-scholar-in-residence.

    Chickens deserve our true friendship! So do fish! So do other sentient beings! Let us learn to be kind.
