Winemakers Club (March 2022)

Posted on 25/03/2022 by dccrossley

I joined a few friends at Winemakers Club, under the arches at Holborn Viaduct, on Wednesday night. That wouldn’t usually be worthy of comment but for the fact that it was my first evening in London since the beginning of … Continue reading →

Winemakers Club, Otros Vinos and Wines Under the Bonnet by Inna Sirota

Posted on 24/02/2019 by dccrossley

Having made rash promises more than a week ago about all the articles I was going to write, I promptly got ill. Those promises will be met, eventually, but in the meantime I was unable to make it to the tasting at Antidote earlier this week. Help was at hand…Inna Sirota has provided some notes on her favourite wines from this event. I hope that they provide some recompense for my own inactivity. I’d like to thank her for generously giving of her time to provide a record of this important tasting. Inna spent fifteen years crunching numbers in New York (banking) and London (Google) before deciding to quit finance in order to concentrate on her passion for wine travel … Continue reading →
