Quoins Organic Vineyard was selected as one of the representatives of smallholder producers in the South West at the EU in Brussels in March.
The ‘Showcase of Southwest Produce’ event was organised by Molly Scott Cato, the Green MEP for the South West. It took place at the Brewers of Europe building in Brussels, and was attended by over 90 representatives of various EU organisations, as well as being featured on BBC Points West. Tasters were particularly impressed with the Orion white wine, that won a Decanter award in 2015 as well as the Quoins Rosé. They were also surprised to find that the UK can produce a very palatable Rondo red wine! The photo is of me doing my bit on explaining the wonders of UK wine.
