England is not really known for its wines, but actually there are thriving vineyards in the South. The climate has been getting warmer in England, which has helped the winemakers, where as the climate has been cooling in France and Italy which is not good for grapes. The British vineyard owners say their wines are not well known now, but they will be in the future as more people discover them. Take a look:
A spokesman for Francois Pinault's Artemis group has strenuously denied British reports that the firm is quietly trying to find a buyer for the legendary vineyard Chateau Latour.
Artemis, Francois Pinault's investment holding company, is not looking to go on a selling spree. In response to rumors circulating in the British press that the firm is shopping around its tony Chateau Latour vineyard, as well as the Christie's international auction house, an Artemis spokeswoman stated Tuesday that they are "totally unfounded and formally denied Artemis is involved in a process of transferring Chateau Latour or any of its strategic assets."
That's very interesting because there were multiple reports about the proposed sale. Perhaps Pinault had a change of heart?
