Stash Under The Sunflowers

While you’re attempting to complete the Wine Wars quest, or independently of the quest, set off in a southeasterly direction, entering Vermentino Vineyard, and south across the main gathering area (the well), to a patch of sunflowers and long grass. Use your Witcher Senses to uncover a locked chest under the sunflowers, and gather a haul of florens as your reward, as this Treasure Hunt concludes.

Enter the warehouse cellar, working your way to the earthen-floored rear of the structure, where a sapling seems to have germinated. Fight off the Archespore, then make a careful sweep of the chamber for a crate with a stock-taking report. The report makes illuminating reading, as it reveals who the saboteur is!

At any point from now on, you can return to Plegmund’s Bridge and speak with the Ducal Clerk and both vintners. Exclaim the following:

“I know the saboteur’s identity”: You can present exact evidence regarding who sabotaged both the wineries: Count Crespi himself! The running of the Belgaard estate now passes to both Liam and Matilda: It looks like they’ll have to play nice from now on! This allows both of them to own a stake in the Belgaard winery. Before Wine Wars: Belgaard (Part 2) can be started once all problems in Vermentino and Coronata have to be resolved.
