First harvest for Sark – the world's newest wine region

Nov 1, 2011

(PRLeap) - SARK HAS become the world’s newest wine region after its first grape harvest took place under the direction of Bordeaux winemaker Dr Alain Raynaud. An island in the English Channel, Sark is just three miles by one mile in size. It is located 8 miles from Guernsey and around 20 miles from the north coast of France [Normandy]. Much of its food produce comes from its land and surrounding waters of the English Channel. But in 2010, Dr Raynaud and his team analysed Sark’s soil and it became apparent that quality wines could also be made.
