Season 2
Published 3 years, 1 month ago
Description
Was there wine in the North American British Colonies?
No, but yes. There was pricey imported wine, and there were also other fruit wines - including stuff made from some of the American grapes.
But no one was selling wine, and definitely no one was exporting any.
All the reasons why, and the most maddening bug in the wine world all get described.
