Saving Our Skins: Building a Vineyard Dream in France
商品資訊
商品簡介
'Earnest and winning... sincere and passionate' The New York Times
Can you build your dream life? Or will it break you?
'We have to get to the next level, or we have to get out, ' I said.
'To make the farm viable we have to have more vines and more accommodation, ' replied Sean.
Both would take investment we didn't have.
Getting to the next level and overcoming challenges that include bureaucracy, renovation delays, and unseasonal frost, will take courage, ingenuity, and luck.
On a winter's day frost is beautiful, but on a spring day after bud burst it spells devastation. For Sean and Caro, a couple whose love affair with wine and France has taken them through financial and physical struggle to create their organic vineyard, it could spell the end. Until they receive an unexpected call that could save their skins.
This book is about life, love and taking risks, while transforming a piece of land into a flourishing organic and biodynamic vineyard and making a new life in France.
It includes evocative descriptions of nature, delicious food and wine, and voyages to wine regions of Napa and Sonoma in the USA, and Alsace, Bergerac, Bordeaux, and Burgundy in France.
Do Caro and Sean save their skins and thrive?
