Cross Farm was an old Sussex farmhouse with inglenook fireplaces, oak beams and secret passages, hidden in a sleepy village on the edge of the Downs. For London journalist Gay Biddlecombe it was the perfect setting for her dream - to plant her own vineyard in England. This book is an account of a city woman's encounter with "the good life" and how she learned to be self-sufficient while at the same time teaching herself to plant and prune a vineyard by hand. From humble beginnings she built up St George's English Wines into a successful business - with many adventures along the way.
