Get Yourself a Glass by Andrew Neather and Victoria Moore
Episode notes
This year's English grape harvest as been hailed as one of the best ever. So why has one of the country's biggest and best producers, Ridgeview, just gone into administration? We look at the harvest and at the challenges of making money from English wine - when you're in competition with Champagne. Also: Prosecco and why the Champagne authorities are threatening model Cara Delevingne; on the road in Galicia, Spain after devastating fires in its vineyards; and what we've been drinking this week.
