Our neighbour in the village,Patricia Atkinson,has retired from wine making. She was responsible for putting Bergerac wines more firmly on the map in the UK with her wines and books like The Ripening Sun. So we have just bought some of her wine vats for fermenting and storing wine. I am sure with such a good pedigree they will be a great addition to our chai.

Bonjour - thought of Patricia Atkinson this morning, and all I could find was a mention of her here. I have bought all her books and followed her a couple of years ago when she moved to France. Sad to hear she has retired. Have missed that opportunity to work on her farm and get to know her. Any other latest news on her whereabouts and how she is doing? Your feedback would be greatly appreciated. Mignonne - a fan and foodie in Cape Town, South Africa.
