Right, so - having blundered my way to the beginnings of the wide, wide world that is South African wine; I've learned that I know bugger all in the even wider world that is the wine world. Being completely flabbergasted & hugely intimidated by the Old Wine World (a.k.a the places that claimed to have been making wine since wine began) (look - I'm using wine words!), I am now starting with the newest wine I can find & exploring that in the form of an Asian wine adventure. I'm still flabbergasted, but slightly less intimidating. *Disclaimer: I am not travelling through Asia solely for the wine but it's nice to try & chase this much beloved beverage around cities, deserts & outlying places.
So here goes - a series of wine wins & mishaps spanning as many countries as will serve us any manner of wine that is actually made from vitis vinifera (actual wine grapes - 'wine' is a loose term, I have learned).
Don't try this at home - get on a plane, a train, a bus or a boat & try it for yourself.
