Star wines in Ukraine?

>> Friday, February 24, 2006

Gérard Dépardieu, perhaps France’s most famous actor, was recently in Ukraine. Apart from dining with president Viktor Yushchenko, Dépardieu also had the time to investigate the prospects for growing wine on the Crimea Peninsula (which is an old wine growing area) with a team of experts that he had brought with him. Dépardieu already makes wine in e.g. the Loire Valley and the Languedoc. Read more in MosNews.com. (Maybe this is a reflection of the saying ”Do you know how to make a small fortune in wine? – Start with a big fortune!”)

I can't help thinking it would be great if Dépardieu would, er, takeover Massandra and bring the quality back to what it once was. The old ones are such great wines!
