Piedmont – Three estates you should really know about

As Piedmont’s star continues to rise and allocations are wrestled out of the most celebrated cellars, there is a tide of quality, family estates quietly going about their business with all the same diligence and care for their wines.

Piedmont – It’s not just Barolo and Barbaresco…

The finest wines of Barolo and Barbaresco are now highly coveted and sought after. For good reason, in our view. Over the past decade in particular, consumers seem to have finally latched on to the unbelievable quality and terroir-transparency that the great Nebbiolo grape can convey.

The narrative about Bordeaux en primeur often begins long before we’ve tasted the wines. Every slight change in weather is seized on as an indicator of success, or failure, with disaster stories dominating opinion.

A memorable vertical of Clos des Ducs

When an invitation to a 29 wine vertical of Marquis d’Angerville’s Monopole Clos des Ducs landed on my e-doorstep, I did not think twice. Invites like this don’t come round very often, in fact it may be the only chance I ever get to taste this wine so extensively, I thought to myself.

South Africa 2022: Big Skies

“Big Skies” I mumbled, as a striking silhouette traced the skyline and the lacy, sweet, mint-like scent of fynbos hung for a fleeting moment in the air. In the final twilight minutes, immediately before darkness envelops the Swartland completely, when the deep fire-red glow of sunset wanes under the pressure of the heavy inky-black sky, the old wind-battered, scraggy arched trees that dot the mountain top morph into being, high above the Paardeberg vineyards below.
