Caribbean Power Lunch

Today, we talk about the business of fruit wine and how to develop a wine that tastes like home.   In this episode, I am joined by guest host Alicia Cooper - my colleague at Aspire Fund Management Company Limited, and our featured guest - Laura Superville, Owner and Founder of 11 Degrees North Boutique Wines.   11 Degrees North is a boutique winery which produces tropical fruit wines. As a boutique winery the focus is on quality; therefore, only a small number of bottles are produced annually. It is estate bottled, the fruits are hand-picked and carefully selected, as only the best fruit are used to produce these sophisticated fruit wines.   Available flavours include sorrel, pommerac, starfruit (five finger), cashew and jamun.     Episode Highlights: What inspired Laura to want to turn fruits into wine.
