But this was the case for Amanda and Warren East, who had regularly visited the beautiful Grade II*-listed building over the decades. "We were living in the house opposite for 27 years," explains Amanda. "Ours was a 1970s 'box' and although we'd changed it a lot, it was not the most characterful of houses." Then their neighbours, who were both in their nineties, left the house to a college in Cambridge, who in turn decided to sell.
Brothers Andrew and Adam Mariani are fourth generation California farmers who, after spending time as vineyard hands in Europe, returned to their hometown and bought an old vineyard in the foothills of Sonoma, California, to start their own winery, Scribe.
