Neil Pendock has started a debate on Fairtrade-”Fairtrade wine: bogus and a scam?” on his blog.  Some valid points are raised-especially in regards to perceptions and mind set. We are Fairtrade accredited and extremely proud of the fact that Fairtrade is a way of life-not a bargaining tool. Through our efforts there is social and skills development, and we are responsible in our actions in regards to the environment. The most important thing still being the quality of our wines and the authenticity of our venture.
