If you have ever considered chucking it all in and buying a vineyard then I would strongly recommend this book. Feely, her husband and family did just that, giving up tow well paid jobs in London, and buying a small vineyard in the Bordeaux region. The property was a bit of a wreck, and they had to go from no knowledge and experience of wine making to experts very rapidly. Along the way, Sean suffers a serious injury on his arm, and a little while after loses the top part of one of his fingers. The route to success is tough, not helped by her parents, who are not that supportive. They almost give it all up, partly because the stress of running the vineyard and raising a family is almost too much. After some strong soul searching they get back on track. They intergrate themselves in the local community, and Caro becomes a respected wine expert in her own right. Really enjoyed it, but was not always keen on the writing style, hence four stars.
