Have been wondering this lately.

A lot of English spoken, cheap, wonderful food.

It's been going on since the 60's, especially around Goa (apparently) very nice if you can deal with the corruption and heat

LVMH set up a winery there isn 2000 I think, they also placed one of thier French winemakers there full-time. I'm not sure what the still wines are like, but he told me that there was excellent potential for fizz.

There was a Foid Programme special on wines from "exotic" places last year and they rated the Indian wines as OK
