The US Wine Market may be becoming more lucrative than the one back home. 

The owner of Te Awanga Estate in Hawke’s Bay is looking to sell up his restaurant, vineyard, and cellar door and focus his efforts on exports.

He said they have to allocate their resources where you think they’ll get the best return.
