Summary/
Abstract
A scientist, Dolapo Ogutuga, discovers a process of making wine from kola nuts. The first samples of his wine are well received by friends and close community. But it needs the marketing experience of his wife to turn the product into a commercial venture. Having entered the huge market for wines, they have to face competition from imported wines and the challenges of meeting production capacity.
