Recent Wines April 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus
Almost half way through May and finally some wines from April emerge. I’m late because I had another week in Scotland, fuelled more by Whisky than wine, it must be said. But now back in the South of England, I … Continue reading

Recent Wines March 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus

Recent Wines February 2022 (Part 2) #theglouthatbindsus
The second part of the most interesting wines drunk at home during February really does contain some crackers. It would be impossible to single out a wine of the month from this part alone, hard enough even to choose a … Continue reading

Recent Wines February 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus
I am hoping that March will see me capable of easing myself into wine life with a few well-judged trips to London in March, and perhaps even elsewhere, but until that happens, I can only give you another round of … Continue reading

Recent Wines January 2022 (Part 2) #theglouthatbindsus
If Part 1 got January off to a strong start, Part 2 goes down equally different paths. We begin with a well known Blaufränkisch from Burgenland before veering right across Europe to Alentejo. Then back we go to cooler climes … Continue reading

Recent Wines January 2022 (Part 1) #theglouthatbindsus
