Well here we are in the middle of France and chugging along on our boat, down some beautiful canals. BUT. I have to write about England first. Warwick is more than interested in wine of course seeing he was involved in this industry all his working life. Over the last few years he has watched the progress of a young winery just outside of Eastbourne in the south of England. The young man who is heading this project is from NZ. Cameron used to be in the industry in Hawkes Bay but has been in England for this project for nearly 3 years. The winery is near a very historic village and they are pouring a lot of money into it as the tourist trade around here is fantastic. They hope for their first vintage this year, although small, so it was interesting to see. I think warwick would love to be involved, if not here, then some where in Briton. Beautiful country side and in a couple of years it will be a great spot to visit with its tasting rooms and restaurants
