Hambledon vineyard is not only our closest vineyard but it is the oldest commercial vineyard in the UK. This week they are starting to harvest the grapes that will make their sparkling wine. Caron Fanshaw from the vineyard shared some of her harvest time excitement... See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
