What may be more of an issue is sunshine. Trotter is hoping for around 100 sunny days a year in Fife over the next three years. The statistics are not encouraging: the Loire Valley enjoys an average of 1,418 hours of sunshine annually compared with 1,221 in Fife.

But Trotter points to predictions of climate change. Just two years ago, French climatologist Jean-Pierre Chaban suggested there could be vineyards in Scotland if global temperatures rose by more than 2 per cent before the end of the century.
