Disease.

There's no way I'll be drinking Indian wine. If they could save 10p they'd be using industrial waste.

If US is concerned it should apply to WTO ruling just like EU did and won when Bush put barriers designed to protect his steel lobby.

Note: WTO is about trade I believe rather than investment or migration (work permits etc).

Wine's a bit of a special case. The duty/licensing laws in India are a minefield.

Oh I forgot, India can trade here barrier free, but India has trade barriers against almost all forms of foreign competition. Silly me.

Thanks to our governments over the last 15 years.

Wines from India do not affect the market significantly and the UK is not the main market.

Indian wines fly off British supermarket shelves - Telegraph

That's my plan of owning a vineyard in Europe fooked.

Wines from India do not affect the market significantly and the UK is not the main market.

There are various ways to run a vineyard:

1. Rent one. Rent is payable one month after harvest.
2. Buy one and rent it out.
3. Buy one and sell the grapes to a winery.
4. Buy one and bottle it yourself. There a loads for sale.

One thousand square metres should produce between 1 to 4 tonnes of grapes. 1kg of grapes makes one 75cl bottle of wine. All wine making is taxed during the making.
