Kate Middleton slammed pregnancy rumours as she enjoyed several glasses of wine during a visit to Otago Wines at Amisfield winery in Queenstown while on her tour in New Zealand on Sunday.
Her hubby Prince William jokingly told a woman, who made baby Prince George a gift, that she “might have to make another one soon” on Saturday. Obviously, that got the media in a little bit of a frenzy.
The 32-year-old Duchess told the wine-makers that she was “really enjoying being able to drink again after having baby George.”
John Darby, owner of the Amisfield vineyard, explained to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge how they monitor the grapes in the climate.
“When it gets very cold, we use helicopters to stop the frost over the vines by hovering above and stirring up the cold air,” Darby said.
“You’re joking! That’s an expensive way to do it!” William mentioned and added, “Wow! If you ever need a spare pilot, I’m here!”
Darby also took the royals to a tour of the vineyard. He told reporters, “I think the Duchess was more interested in the gardening—she seemed quite knowledgeable in the pruning aspect of the vines.”
During the walk, Middleton nearly tripped in her wedges, but she quickly held onto William’s arm to regain her balance.
The happy Duchess tried several varieties and tastes, including Aurum Pinot Gris and Remarkable dry Riesling.
Hannah Armstrong, from Mudhouse Wines, said, “Kate said she hadn’t drunk whilst pregnant with George and although she doesn’t drink much, she was really enjoying the odd glass.”
The royal couple sure knows how to have a good time!
