New recruit Ben McVeigh-Whitaker reports...
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!
