Bancroft's Ben, Mike, and Jason with Camilla from the Somerset Wine Company, Toby Webster from Black Dog Wines, Phil Innes from Loki Wines in Birmingham, Nick Underwood and William Mason. |
Last week, Bancroft visited the Languedoc with 5 lucky
customers to visit three of our producers and witness the harvest in action. It
is always a treat to go and visit the wineries, see the terroir and meet the
people behind the wines. But to see the harvest in action was very exciting. There
is a sense of excitement all around, with picker in the vineyards, tractors and
vineyard machinery buzzing around the country lanes, fully ripe grapes
everywhere you look, and a great sense of anticipation in the air!
