Wine, Beer and Spirits

Max Skinner, man about town and successful City slicker, finds himself suddenly redundant. Instead of rejoining the rat race he has an opportunity to start a new life when he finds he has inherited an 18th century vineyard in Provence. It sounds ideal but life has a habit of surprising, even in paradise. A novel of wine, women and sun, with a plot that offers more twists than a corkscrew.
