Glass Half Full

Caro Feely

From Shelf: Environmental: Save The Planet

Hail at harvest time is every wine grower's nightmare. For Sean and Caro Feely, a couple whose love of wine led them to create an organic vineyard in France, it's just one of many challenges they face. Join Caro as she juggles family duties, relationship crises and the struggle to make natural wine in harmony with the environment.

'Glass Half Full is a love story poured beautifully onto the pages by Caro Feely. If you love wine or someone who loves wine, you will drink in every page of this beautiful book.'

Robyn O'Brien, bestselling author

Hand harvesting was a different process to machine harvesting. It was convivial and slow. We started at dawn and slowly proceeded across the vineyards. It was better for us and for the grapes, the human scale and pace of it more peaceful and joyful.

But this rose-tinted glimpse of life is only part of the story - with it come long hours, uncertainty and their associated stress. For Sean and Caro Feely, the rollercoaster ride of managing a growing business is as challenging as making natural wine in harmony with the environment. Will the previous six years of hard work that created a flourishing organic vineyard in France prove worthwhile? Join Caro on her search for balance in life and wine. Does yoga hold the secret? And will she make it through this growth phase with marriage, farm and sanity intact?
