## Description

British wine is about provenance, connection to the land, supporting local producers and exploring the flavours of our own isles. It’s also about the people behind the bottles. This book is a collection of their stories. As a wine writer and drinks journalist, Abbie Moulton has had a front-row seat to the journey of the British wine industry. Told through the stories of thirty producers from across the country, Abbie presents a cross-section of what’s happening in the wine movement across the regions. Ranging from the country’s largest wineries producing millions of bottles each year, through design-led vineyard stays to one-man-band operations (or, to quote, ‘a bloke in a garage‘) making fine wines by hand, the collection spans some of the earliest vineyards planted in the seventies, through to newcomers exploring what’s possible in previously unplanted pockets of Great Britain. On the way are the now-classic sparkling wines that first put English wine on the world stage, alongside producers refining and redefining that traditional-method style and a new generation experimenting with everything from blending methods to pét nats and skin contact styles. There are also still wines revealing future fine wine hotspots, those makers eking wine from unlikely hillsides, and innovators shaping what may become the next chapter of British wine. Inside you’ll find: A snapshot of people, places, flavours and wines that have shaped the wine movement so far. Beautiful film photography shot across the country. Inspiration for your next bottle of British wine and where to taste it.
