Wine paraphernalia, new knowledge, stuff that impresses me, things that make me happy

@FelicityCarter Excellent and important post @FelicityCarter Presumably you agree with Ignacio that wine should distance itself from other forms of alcohol by emphasising its part in the Mediterranean diet?

Tasting season nearly done. 2022s looking exciting all over the place. Lovely Beaune 1ers Crus from Chanson, and top Premiers and Grands Crus from Bichot. Then these smashers from Vagabond- ace Pet Nat, wild, chewy Bacchus Dios Mio, lyrical Pinot Noir+ sensational Solena Ortega.

Desperately sorry to read this. Pau had a profound and positive influence on both Spanish wine and the OIV.

[OIV @OIV_int]

It is with heavy hearts that we inform that OIV Director General Pau Roca passed away this December 7th in Dijon, France, after a long illness. RIP https://t.co/8kccwlVR9v

“Think of food not as fuel but as pleasure”. Equally true for wine. Some outstanding insights into setting expectations, useful for marketeers. Thx @areniglobal @Labelsandgrapes @pierrechandon https://t.co/5fgJ4pe49R

I would like to think that in 10 years time we will look back on this article by @bonkowskimw on bulk wine buying and think why did it take us so long? After all, what is better than recycling? Avoiding unnecessary packaging in the first place. https://t.co/S1MY4wNnro

I love this. Wish I could have shown it to my past self. Wish I could show it to a few parents I know.

[Richard Bampfield @bampwine]

@robertjoseph There is also the issue that lighter bottles are hard/impossible to find in many parts of the world. We need ALL in value chain involved, hence need for @SusWineLtd Producers tell me Verallia are highly supportive.

Today's the day! 🤩 Eastern Promise, the fourth of my Felix Hart Novels, is OUT NOW 🍷📚 Stockists linked on my website (link in bio!) #pubday #booklaunch

[Richard Bampfield @bampwine]

@Just1nHS @PonceDuVin Have just started reading Eastern Promise. The hapless Felix once again squirming at the merciless hands of Paris-Blois…….wonderful stuff😊

[Richard Bampfield @bampwine]

@HPIAndyCowper @HPIAndyCowper not as far as I know. New vintage perhaps? Will make sure I take a look myself as this is one of my favourites in the range…..

About once a year I treat myself to watch this video - a version of “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” played by a supergroup of rock royalty, all of whom completely upstaged when Prince plays possibly the greatest guitar solo of all time: https://t.co/rsPsLg6M2M
