From summer of 2022
British Vineyards thrive in the heat

Vineyards across Britain are thriving amidst the warming climate, placing new wine regions on the map. But what are the implications?

As a result of the warming climate, winemakers are able to produce varieties of wine that are more traditionally accustomed to France, such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, perhaps soon to be Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, as our climate continues to warm.

Meteorologist and Reporter Tamsin Green went to visit Fairmile Vineyard, in Henley-on-Thames in Oxfordshire, to speak to Owner Jan Mirkowski about the impacts he's felt from the heat, particularly from summer 2022. Take a watch of the video above to hear.

The weather map shows the temperatures in south-eastern Europe and the Mediterranean region. It is particularly warm in the Balkans: temperatures in Belgrade are reaching 25 degrees. A red arrow indicates that warm air is flowing from the central Mediterranean towards Serbia. In Italy, Greece and Romania, too, temperatures are above 20 degrees in many places. By contrast, it is significantly cooler in the Alps and in parts of Central Europe.
