Missing the sea and the sunlight? Travel with us t

Missing the sea and the sunlight? Travel with us to Cassis, an old fishing town on the Mediterranean coast.

Last autumn @andywine2021 visited 10 local wine producers and discovered there’s more to this part of Provence than rosé – there are serious white wines to be found too.

‘…the Mediterranean lends Cassis whites a distinctive whiff of brine and a touch of salinity that makes you want another glass.’

We’re delighted to share the news that Viking in

We’re delighted to share the news that Viking in the Vineyard by Peter Vinding-Diers @montecarrubo has won two Gourmand Awards in the category of Best Wine Writing and Best Wine Professional. To celebrate this we are offering a 20% discount on Viking in the Vineyard until 21st January. Link in bio.

Tamlyn Currin’s review of Viking in the Vineyard for JancisRobinson.com
‘It’s a story that has all the components of a blockbuster. Crime, romance, hard times, good times, wealth, bankruptcy, bad guys, good guys, epic parties, epic mistakes, fast cars, jalopies, war, feasts, starvation, nostalgia, beauty and, above all, a happy ending. Add to that a glittering roll call of names: PVD has rubbed shoulders with, nay, is on intimate terms with, a staggering number of the wine world’s greats and their names litter the pages with nonchalant familiarity. Throw in some iconic bottles of wine and a handful of castles, and all you need is a Viking to come charging in.’

Carema, located in northern Piedmont, is one of Italy’s smallest and most beautiful wine regions, its spectacular vineyards carved high into the mountainsides. Our Italian correspondent Michele Longo @michele_nebbiolo recently had the pleasure of meeting its new generation of producers and tasting their Carema wines. Here, he shares his favourites.

Have you ever wondered what Christmas dinner would be like with the Champagne producers? Two families in Vertus – a town in the heart of the Côte des Blancs – opened their doors and shared their Christmas menus with @andywine2021: his report brings even more suggestions for making the most of the season.

With the rise in popularity of light, dry, food-friendly wines, Gewurztraminer from Alsace has fallen out of favour. Our contributor @andywine2021 thinks we’re missing out. To find out more about this iconic grape, he visited six producers of Grand Cru Gewurztraminer in Alsace, and discovered a precious FESTIVE season TREAT – ‘lightness’ may not be its calling card, but it is food friendly!
