Wraxall Vineyard trip

In August we went on our first trip as the Frome WI to Wraxall Vineyard near East Pennard.




It was a lovely summer's evening with only the merest threat of rain.



And the most amazing views of the surrounding countryside.



Brian, who owns the vineyard along with his wife Jackie, talked us through the history of the vineyard and it's current incarnation in their care.


We then went on a stroll looking at the vines.







And learning a little bit about viniculture. Geneva double curtain anyone?

We then went inside as the sun set to taste some of the wines.
