A café with wooden cakes... Sculptor Robert Jurak has created around 2,000 wooden cakes, which are displayed around the Flo Cukeraj café in Ljutomer, northeast Slovenia, Ideal if you want cake but are on a diet.

@ozclarke See you there! I'm also interested in the Greek and Georgian wines.

@jamiegoode Love their wines!

@TweetaDean @pietrosd @frankstero @SteveKubota @DivaVinophile @RealWineGuru @nineov @GilesMacDonogh @Friscokid49 @wineworldnews @winewankers Beautiful region with some stunning wineries and views. Turbiana is far more versatile than I knew before visiting the region.

@GilesMacDonogh @TweetaDean @wineworldnews @winewankers @SteveKubota @DivaVinophile @RealWineGuru @nineov @Friscokid49 @frankstero @pietrosd I will weigh up the marketing/publicity value v potential legal fees. This whole adventure will probably bankrupt me anyway...

Wine writer @ChrisBoiling has made wine for 15 years as a personal project, but now he is launching his own commercial label Crazy Experimental Wines… which is as crazy as it sounds; 6 wines made in 4 countries in the same harvest using rare grapes! https://t.co/hMXtVlxLdE

@GilesMacDonogh @TweetaDean @wineworldnews @winewankers @SteveKubota @DivaVinophile @RealWineGuru @nineov @Friscokid49 @frankstero @pietrosd Because I didn't think of it! But who knows now? I steered away from using my name because I thought Boiling Wine would be an even tougher sell.

@BiroLidija Thank you. Sales are the difficult part.

Tomorrow, I launch my Georgian #wine to the great British public - at a garden festival in Devon! I have a gut feeling elderly gardeners will love an #amberwine from Georgia. My business plan relies on a huge uptake of cases this weekend. #notworried

Young #wine is just alcohol! So says French #winemaker Jean Michel Morel, who discusses the latest release of his #amberwine Luisa - from the 2013 vintage - with me in the new edition of Canopy

@wineschools Look out for my piwi wine from Austria. The aim is to change perceptions of piwis. It's a blend of Souvignier Gris and Muscaris. I'll be marketing it on its sustainability credentials. Coming later this year. https://t.co/QJCcn7u9YH
