@whiteswine@wheelyweb The album was The Rolling Stones, purchased after hearing Not Fade Away (opening track on the U.S. version, apparently) on the radio.
Could 2019 be the vintage to make lots of new converts to Germany's delicious dry Rieslings? There are so many reasons to give them a try. They have body, freshness and personality in spades for a start, and are great with food https://t.co/KhMqbPWfX2
As someone who has the pleasure of working constantly with German #wine and many fabulous families behind it, I was really pleased to see @AnneInVino’s excellent book get this well deserved recognition. Hopefully many more will pick it up and read it!

Getting on for three years on, this remains a staggering - and deeply relevant - piece of journalism. Tears through layer after layer to get to the heart of it, and reveals so much. Long story, but that’s the point https://t.co/CRoJ1uJa27

You had me at “gouleyant”... I love the World Atlas of #Wine intro paragraph on #Beaujolais - and @DominiquePiron’s Beaujolais-Villages captures that charm & vitality equally eloquently. Watch for a little more detail: https://t.co/3vY3X3Lejw
A tale of tension: Ansgar Clüsserath Vom Schiefer #Riesling - pure, dry and with lovely balance at 11% alcohol. How does Eva do it? Mosel magic and natural ability on show... https://t.co/ta73QvIDMb
Schieferterrassen - Ode to #Wine: Challenging to put into words the way this Heymann-Löwenstein #Riesling melds metaphysics, art, nature & intuition. But here’s my attempt to convey its spell: https://t.co/tlYu4bpIUy
“Why is it that every time I sit around a table of somms, importers or winemakers, it’s the #Riesling bottle that’s always finished first?" asks Travis Howe @CarltonWineRoom. This 12-person dinner & these wines will answer that question next Tuesday: https://t.co/OQ0BXBlU61
