I realise that this is my first post in 3 years - oops!
Have been absorbed into Instagram.

If so, check out the Festive Wines event coming up in November - https://t.co/rtxuyKRTMf

@joefattorini @Quintadelarosa1 The @TheWineSociety currently has some of their 2017 (thanks to a cancelled airline order apparently). My tipple tonight, cheers 🍷

The Douro Valley is as stunning as I hoped it would be. Exploring by train, boat, including wonderful tour and tasting at @Quintadelarosa1 - Full write up on the blog soon.

@joefattorini @japster2008 @WineShowTV It’s because of @WineShowTV that I found myself here today…

Good day in #Porto. Had a welcome glass of white port at our hotel, another glass of white port for lunch at a bizarre experience involving an organist, then a tour and port tasting at Graham’s. Full write up of my travels on the blog next week.

@sampriestley Hi Sam - If you’re in Sheffield check out the Yorkshire Heart vineyard - the team are so knowledgeable and friendly. See my write up at https://t.co/qyORkFkEVs

@WineShowTV Here’s my reminder of my bottles from 2020 that clever Santa made into a cork board - love it!!

The cat’s joined in tonight’s Rhone wines webinar with @PrincessaPinot and @amelias_wine. We taught her well.

@WineShowTV @TheWinerist @wheninromewine Can’t wait to get away with my drinking partner @ianfleming in 2021 - Exploring the breathtaking wine regions of New Zealand is top of the wish list. #showusyourgimblettgravels #travel

The third Wednesday in November is #NationalZinfandelDay - this Californian beauty packs a full bodied punch at 14.5% and is a steal at £8 from @asda

Last time it was Friday 13th, I joined @itsGrahamRogers on BBC Radio Wiltshire to look at “Bad Luck wines” - you can read all about the wine superstitions on the blog at https://t.co/kZMHW6FB59

We then went into lockdown number one!

@meesh_miller We have cracked open a @GeorgesDuboeuf #fleurie for tonight’s kedgeree. #nomnom

[Fromthegrapevine @from_grapevine]

My own creation tonight- chopped up beef burger in a spicy tomato and pepper sauce... good enough for @jollyolly !
(Sadly no wine pairing as the liver needs a break).

This time last year we were enjoying a tour and tasting of the @Yorkshire_Heart vineyards - the most enjoyable, informative and entertaining visit!

The weather finally looks kind enough this weekend to present my next video on summer rosé!

They’ve been lurking in my fridge for weeks!

[Fromthegrapevine @from_grapevine]

I expect good service, but when I get excellent service, I think praise is due. I ordered a special gift for a friend at the weekend and it turned up today! I can't show the gift, as it's a secret, but I can show the box! Well done
