Very cool glasses. Not sure how I feel about them for wine though? I miss the stem! Inside the glass is a nice fresh, crisp #vinhoverde which was delicious!

This #nebbiolo went really well with a hearty lamb stew, perfect for a cold winter's evening. Medium bodied with some red fruits, spice and smokey flavours

What wine would you serve with this fantastic selection of #charcuterie from @DuchySalami ? Maybe a crisp, acidic #albariño or a light #pinotnoir ? Or even a #champagne ?

The search for the best wine in London continues. An elegant and smooth tasting 2017 Château Ste Anne from Bandol. Rasberry and dark fruits, some earthy flavours with soft, rounded tannins.

James Cleverly is on the ropes for calling Stockton North a sh*thole.

Rishi Sunak has declared full confidence in him, two days after this Suella Braverman was fired.

It's time for the whole rotten lot to go.

What a great find this Château Rahoul 2018 was at Amelies Winehouse. From the Graves appellation on the left bank of the Bordeaux region in France, this wine is elegant, with silky tannins and pleasant dark fruit flavours which you can taste for a while afterwards. We loved it!

[The Curious Grape @curiousgrapeuk]

What a fantastic wine! Interesting name (a play on words as the wine couldn't have #appellation status). Lovely ripe black fruit flavours and some smokiness. Great finesse yet also the intensity. Lovely stuff!
