Are phenolics and even bitterness coming back into fashion? In a fascinating piece on my site about tannins in white wine, Margaret Rand draws parallels with radicchio, flamenco, ballet and Billie Holliday. Photo by Nihal Demirci. timatkin.com/powerful-elegan…

The wine business speaks as (almost) one voice. The government must scrap vi-1.

I can honestly – and objectively, of course – say that this is worth tuning in for tonight. 6pm, YouTube, with @joeldram & @mrvinosaurus & guest appearances from the likes of @AlexHuntMW and @ronan_sayburnms – youtu.be/azWngMUUy9Y Not your average virtual awards ceremony...
Tonight's the night – @theIWSC awards ceremony goes out on YouTube at 6pm. Watch here youtu.be/azWngMUUy9Y and tweet #IWSCATHOME with a shot of what you’re wearing or what you’re drinking, for the chance to win a case of trophy winners...

Berkmann is relaunching the Help 4 Hospitality initiative today to assist the UK On Trade during this second national lockdown. Donations have been increased to 20% for venues & 10% for customer orders. If you would like to participate, email [email protected] for more details.
Am hearing from chefs around the country that customers are cancelling tables. These are not tables booked at times that would cut short their dinner with the 10PM curfew. The Govt’s tactics are frightening people to stay at home. Hospitality is safer than home. Please Eat Out

So what is @AlexHuntMW’s ideal quarantine wine?! 🤔 Clue: it’s something ‘both soothing and evocative, to relax the mind then transport it’. 😀🎙💥 Full podcast episode out now! susieandpeter.com/podcast-ep…
