The sweetness comes in the thrill of the vintage. Even though half the wines we drink come from the southern hemisphere and their grapes were picked in the early months of the year, their vintages don’t have the same emotional appeal as European ones do. We’ve […]

]]> The True Value of Wine by Tom Surgey https://threewinemen.co.uk/the-true-value-of-wine-by-tom-surgey/ Thu, 29 Aug 2024 12:44:11 +0000 https://threewinemen.co.uk/?p=2982 I routinely say, “Only about a third of the value of a wine is the aroma and taste”, and I stand by it. Writing ‘How to Drink Wine’ (out 29th August in all good bookshops!) gave me a great opportunity to hold this statement up and give it proper scrutiny. Human connection and community make […]

The climate emergency presents vital challenges encouraging sustainability across the world of wine from vineyards to packaging, shipping and decisions on the wines we choose to buy. With drought-resistant grapes thriving […]
