We visited the shop at the Findhorn Foundation who stocked a large selection of their range. It’s<br />

not enough for a Wine to just be Organic/Vegan/Vegetarian and Biodynamic it has to taste good and<br />

we tried them all. My favourite actually was the Champagne I had for my 40th, the “Fleury Carte<br />

Rouge”, beautiful, crisp, and clear that will give any well known Champagne a run for their money,<br />

I also recommend the Fluery Blanc de Noir.<br />

Neil of Vintage Roots told me about the wines they have that are lower in sulphur or have no<br />

sulphur (seen on the wine label as Sulphites) at all. Labelling, unless you know what you are<br />

looking for can be a mine field “contains sulphites” is a very common sight.<br />

Its main functions are to inhibit or kill unwanted yeasts and bacteria, and to protect wine from<br />

oxidation. The feeling of having headaches, fogginess is associated with the sulphites in wine.<br />

“23 years on, and I still get a<br />

huge buzz out of running Vintage<br />

Roots”<br />

Never a dull moment and I’m proud<br />

of what we’ve achieved and where we<br />

are heading. I don’t have to preach the<br />

benefits of ‘organic’ any more people<br />

know what organic wine is about<br />

nowadays; I just say ‘taste that”<br />

“My 1st big break”<br />

Either selling our first van load of 60<br />

cases in the first 2 months of business<br />

- way beyond what we expected - or<br />

possibly selling about 2,000 cases of a red<br />

called Albaric (VPD du Gard) into Peter<br />

Dominics as it then was, in the late 80’s....<br />

it was a BIG deal way back then!<br />
