Returned last night from Corsica where Rose is putting together a white Vermentino for Ulithorne - its a beautiful refreshing white wine variety and is widely grown on both Corsica and Sardinia... will be a good addition to the brand. She also has a mission to find a quality Rosé from Provence and maybe a Tempranillo from Rioja Spain. The plan being to source single variety organic grapes from the best sites in the world for that variety, make a great wine with the grower and put them under our label - also a good excuse to travel. The 5 hour boat ride over to Corsica was a bit rough for the kids but we loved the Island's rugged interior and villages on the West coast. It would be great to sail around - next time. Rose has to go over again in December to do the final blend but that wine should be back in Australia in March next year.
That sounds so wonderful Sam. Give our love to Rose and the kids. Lovely to see what a fantastic time you are having exploring and experiencing.
