Real Wine 2024 (Part 3)
There are six producers here in Part 3 so I’ll have to be a little more general, especially as one or two twisted my arm to taste quite a few wines. We are also all over the place here, in … Continue reading

Recent Wines July 2023 (Part 2) #theglouthatbindsus
July has been a month for hoovering up a few wines I’ve written about before, so again there are only five wines to tell you about in Part 2. I should explain that I don’t see myself as a wine … Continue reading

Recent Wines February 2023 (Part 2) #theglouthatbindsus
Part Two of the wines we drank at home in February takes us to ground mostly not covered in Part One. We begin in Austria’s Rust, then Georgia’s Imereti, before we travel back to Alsace. Realising I’d not been drinking … Continue reading

Recent Wines April 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus

Recent Wines March 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus

Recent Wines February 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus
