Maybe we are not so crazy. I had no idea there were vineyards in Denmark. Whereas we are Europe's westernmost vineyard, they are touting being Europe's northernmost vineland. Since 2000, they have been making wines in Denmark. There are four key regions: Jutland, Funen, Zealand and Bornholm.
We started in 2015 in Mayo. There are vineyards now in counties Dublin, Wicklow, Wexford, Waterford, and Cork. We are not yet producing thousands of bottles, but hey, it's a start and you never know.
