Il semble que cela soit le bon moment pour revenir sur cette 🥇 pour #Grenoble avec sa qualité de vie exceptionnelle comme classée par @OxfordEconomics dans son index des villes 😊 https://t.co/BYRyP6hKvk
The Ritz! A perfect place for lunch after getting my OBE from the King at Buckingham Palace. The staff and kitchen were on top form and clearly I’m ready for a top up of this scrumptious Fleurie 2020 Domaine de Fa which positively purred with succulent Suffolk lamb.
China is no longer the wine eldorado as on top of the decrease for the 3rd consecutive year of wine consumption in the country, there is also a drop of wine imports in value. Export strategies need to reevaluate the prospects for this market.
Michel Rougier, personnalité du #Beaujolais viticole nous a quitté. Il a consacré plus de 30 ans au vignoble dont 20 ans à l’interprofession. Souvent en avance sur son temps, ardent défenseur des Beaujolais Nouveaux, il a contribué à faire progresser l’image des Beaujolais. RIP.
Marché du BN en baisse + COVID 19 (il sera difficile à célébrer cette année vu les restrictions)+ coefficient de mise en marché sans doute mal adapté pour rassurer le négoce = tension sur les cours. Il n’est pas trop tard pour rectifier le tir par la négociation.

If quality of life is defined by the daily time spent eating and drinking, France is 1st, UK last. To enjoy wine, one needs time to appreciate. Happiness and greater life expectancy are at stake ! Wouldn’t you agree? @joefattorini@jamiegoode @BF_WineSpirit @Decanter@foodandwine
Recruited in 2007 by Inter Beaujolais to help the #Beaujolais wine region with the assistance of my team regain a positive image as shown by this table. The quality of the wines produced by our winegrowers did the rest. Régnié producers need to persevere but still lack notoriety.
Les lyonnais reviennent en #Beaujolais : le château de Poncié change de mains. Dommage que le groupe Henriot quitte la région. Espérons que le nouveau repreneur aura les reins solides pour développer ce super domaine. @TerredeVins https://t.co/hJz7OFYwdw
Covid and world alcohol consumption: estimated 12 % decrease for 2020. 2024 to get back to 2019 levels. This latest study from IWSR for Vinexpo shows a downward trend for wine consumption over the 2019-2024 period and on trade sales. @Decanter@HarpersWine https://t.co/zQUiGlSBAG
Great opportunity to invest in #Beaujolais: Château des Ravatys is for sale with 28ha of Brouilly & Côte de Brouilly vines. L'Institut Pasteur vend le Château des Ravatys pour 6,9 M€ pour financer un vaccin contre le Covid-19 @TerredeVins https://t.co/drefASbZmv
@Christina_SvR Exciting project Christina! 👍 Great to see that there will be some gamay. It will most probably be happy there. You should contact Sicarex to get your gamay massal sélection. All the best!
AAWE papers state that wine growers relying on wine tourism will be financially the most affected by Covid-19 whereas those having developed internet sales will fare better. I would add that those relying mostly on hospitality trade will suffer most. @BF_WineSpirit @JMiquelWine
