Belize, Central America


At the moment, I'm in Belize taking a swipe at making fortified wine. Producing a port style elixir in the jungles of Central America may not sound like a typical endeavor for a winemaker, but Belize is not your typical sort of place and my time here is always marked by the beautiful and the unusual. I've been here a month so far, and though my time is coming to a close soon the "port" (and I use the term loosely) is actually drinking fairly well. What's left will probably be buried. Yes, buried. More on that later....
