Kevin Ecock's Winepod

There is no doubt that many island wineries will find it hard to 'tough it out' this year. Many depend on a tourist market to drink their wines. There are no tourists. Other's are totally dependent on export markets that have, for the time being, ceased to trade. And yet their grapes continue to grow, their vineyards continue to need maintenance and their families need to be looked after. Tough times. Recently the WinePod recorded a fascinating interview with Jose Gonzalez, owner and winemaker at Can Xanet in Majorca.  We wish him, and his colleagues across the island, well. In this podcast we learn new grapes, old ideas, new innovation and a willingness to face adversity. This is what Islanders have always had to do. Hopefully their current difficulties will not leave scars when the good times return. The Can Xanet Wines are distributed across Ireland by Tindal Wine Merchants. ------------------------------------------------------------------------While all restaurants in Ireland are closed right now they
