Oz Clarke's SeaFrance Wine Guide
Hi! I’m Oz Clarke. I’m the Wine Man. I’m here to guide you through the world
of wine - pointing out the tricky bits as they occur, but mostly showing you that wine doesn’t
have to be daunting and confusing. After all, why does wine exist? To make us happy, to
bring friends and family together for a good laugh, to transform a simple meal into a party -
whether for two or for twenty. Because if a wine doesn’t make me smile I don’t see the point
of it, and at SeaFrance we want you to think the same way.
Shopping for wines in France is a great joy - you drive off the ferry and head off away
into the vineyard areas further south, whether you take advantage of the great shopping on the
north French coast around the Channel ports (and don’t forget to eat: there are loads of delightful
little restaurants offering local fare at affordable prices - every village along the Cote d’O
pale seems to have at least one restaurant) - or whether you buy from us, at our
all-year-round low prices on board the ferry. I’ve included a simple guide to the wines of
France. I’ve asked - and answered - some favourite questions. So, reach for
your corkscrew, pour yourself a glass and enjoy the site!
