I am exhausted by Brexit. Think of everything else that could have been achieved had we not voted for self-inflicted wounds. 🇪🇺
Anyone else feel like this?

Watching all the winemakers in Burgundy, Sauternes and the Loire light small fires trying to save this vintage from late frost- Bon courage, mes amis 🤞

Seven years ago today, I woke up to the news that the UK had chosen to leave the EU. As an EU National, it still feels personal. It was a heartbreaking moment for me and my family and many Brits too. Sorry it’ll never work out

Erm- so a central London restaurant with a huge wait list is going to charge my friend (with the flu) £200 to cancel. This seems insane. She’s given 48 hours notice!!!

I feel like 2011 Bordeaux need to be re-reviewed. They are great, even if this Figeac only got 90 points from Neal Martin, 87 from Robert Parker 😳

Anybody who replies to the chlorinated chicken debate with "there is chlorine in water too" needs to actually understand why they need so much chlorine for the chicken. They're raised in filth and the rate of food poisoning deaths in the US is highest in the OECD

I cannot bear the bullshit of this- nobody is going to get cheaper wine.
🍷 Tariffs on favoured New Zealand products such as Sauvignon Blanc will be slashed by five per cent, knocking an average of 20 pence off the cost of each bottle imported from the country

Does anyone else who works in wine/is a wine lover get asked all the time “what is your favourite wine?”
I really don’t have one- do you?
Since you asked again, 1993 Clos St Jacques, Rousseau
