Second comment, love the Channel. Come to the Great Lakes some day. Maybe use a ship transport 🍻👍🇨🇦
Number 4 or 5. I hope you are well 🙏🙏🙏❤❤
I love england but no it wont even get close to spain italy and france when it comes to wine. And we dont even need to talk about food 😂
What a beautiful and tasty visit! I want a Vinyard, and someone to work it. 😂
"Beating France at Its Own Game"
well.. somebody beating harden now..
Ohhh boy the timing of the name of this video vs what’s happening in France right now
Interesting. What a beautiful view with the river in the background.
Thanks.
My mind is boggled. Maybe because after Brexit, they're no longer part of the EU? In France, vineyards are subsidized (it's France, of course they are) to pull the vines out, because there is a glut of wine in storage and unsold. Millions of bottles. I'm sure confused…
I've come over from Alex and Emma's channel to say hi and subscribe, I'm looking forward to watching your adventures.
Nikki, your hair looks great in this episode, which begs the question: how/where do you get your haircut when traveling? Or does Jason cut it? 😉 (Btw, my first name is Wynn and also from Texas)
World beside couple, my wife and I love you both..
Unfortunately, France is a literal dumpster fire right now……Always enjoy history lessons. Thanks!

Othe morn’n Mr. & Mrs. WYNN,Thinking perhaps you two need to section off a portion of UNDRA’s lower deck to have a dedicated wine cellar, judging by your enthusiastic response each and every time you meet people along your journeys who enjoy (one of ) the finer arts in life ❣️🍇
🍷🥂
Love how enthusiastically you are tasting 🥂, even more than the beers. Really appreciate the education you provide of the places you’ve visited.
Another secret of the South West (both South Coast and in particular the North Coast – Bristol Channel Area) is Cider, Scrumpy and Perry, both Apple and Pear Ciders and lately berry mixed Flavoured Ciders, the South West is Cider Country. Everyone knows Scotland and Ireland does Whisky or Whiskey, but Wales does also! Not forgetting Ireland does Guinness, etc.
Thanks, it is nice to see what they are doing.
English wine is made from English grown grapes, British wine was made from juice imported from anywhere.
I saw concrete vats in Bordeaux last year, which surprised me as well. Thanks, once again, for opening my eyes to an industry that I never knew existed in that region. Although maybe it’s a good thing that I didn’t know about this because between Irish beer, Scotch in Scotland, wine in France, and beer in Belgium it seemed like I was on a drinking tour. 😂😂 Love you guys! ❤❤
Well this makes me thirsty 🥂🍷🍾 Beautiful Country Side.
The French have been fighting for and losing the top spot in blind taste tests since at least the 1970's in wines (they lost to the US in an event for the bicentennial) and sparkling wine/Champagne. With modern research techniques and ampelography I would say it's gotten a lot easier to produce good wine almost anywhere in the world as long as the passion is there to support it.
Great video as always! As an Australian we like to think our wine is the best but I'm sure the UK and France are on par 😊 😉
boring. get back to the boat stuff
10:40 Not sure "mother nature" can be blamed for the increasing instability of weather patterns threatening wine, coffee, cocoa and all sorts of crops 😿
Just spent a week in Salcombe. It was lovely. Sadly, didn’t make it to visit wineries.
France is outta control with protesters …
That is super interesting, I did not know about UK wines, this was such an interesting episode.
👍👍 You guys.
Will we be seeing the Travel Beans in a future episode?
I think I would of been bladdered by the end LMAO. 🤣🤣🤣
Not a fan of sparkley wine, love the Pino N, this was fun that’s guys for the edit!!❤️⚓️
❤ GR8 VID ❤ LOVED IT ❤
Easy to see at 13:20, the term Pinot derives from plants that cluster their grapes in the shape of pine cones.
Well this is perfect; two videos with the Wynn’s today. Now you’ve taken a senior woman, who is camping in RMNP (Estes), to a vineyard in England.
That was all very interesting about England.
Interesting video. Who knew that England has the best sparkling wine in the world. My sister just left for Wales today so I may have to let her know about this. Keep the good stuff coming guys.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel like I'm drunk and all I've done is watch this video.
Slamming em back in the olde country…now that's living.
I started my Wine & Spirits course at College. My wine lecturer with my studies and work, he suggested I think about going to London to do stage 4 of the syllabus. I quietly took him to one side and explained to him I was still only 17 and shouldn't be on the course anyway!!
Great video! Thank you! 🙏🏼
