In a country better known for its beer, Belgium is seeing a resurgence in winemaking as the
00:06
climate changes.
00:14
Belgium's winemakers are busy adapting to climate change, and the rise in temperature
00:18
is encouraging more winemaking in a country that's famous for its beer.
00:23
But in Wallonia, near to the French border, the winemaking is also being hindered by the
00:28
hazards of climate change.
00:54
With global warming, the budding of the vines begins earlier in the season, making it more
00:58
vulnerable to spring frost.
01:01
And there's another headache, the recent appearance of insects and diseases in the vineyards of
01:05
northern Europe, which used to be more common in the south.
01:09
There's an insect called Drosophila suzuki, it started in southern Europe, so at the time,
01:21
the other countries that are more north, they don't come to us.
01:25
But apparently, the Suzuki Drosophila suzuki, it moves more north every year, it has already
01:33
become here in Belgium.
01:35
So winemakers are having to adapt and change their technique.
01:39
The owner of Chateauban-Baron now applies clay to her vines, to protect them from both
01:44
water stress and heat stress.
01:47
And she's also started removing some of the leaves from the vine.
