00:00In a country better known for its beer, Belgium is seeing a resurgence in winemaking as the

00:06climate changes.

00:14Belgium's winemakers are busy adapting to climate change, and the rise in temperature

00:18is encouraging more winemaking in a country that's famous for its beer.

00:23But in Wallonia, near to the French border, the winemaking is also being hindered by the

00:28hazards of climate change.

00:54With global warming, the budding of the vines begins earlier in the season, making it more

00:58vulnerable to spring frost.

01:01And there's another headache, the recent appearance of insects and diseases in the vineyards of

01:05northern Europe, which used to be more common in the south.

01:09There's an insect called Drosophila suzuki, it started in southern Europe, so at the time,

01:21the other countries that are more north, they don't come to us.

01:25But apparently, the Suzuki Drosophila suzuki, it moves more north every year, it has already

01:33become here in Belgium.

01:35So winemakers are having to adapt and change their technique.

01:44water stress and heat stress.

01:47And she's also started removing some of the leaves from the vine.
