Codorníu is 'the Disneyland of wine', a giant that produces 35m+ bottles of Cava a year. We visited the estate, rode a high speed train through 19 miles of underground cellars and discovered the systems they use to achieve a precise expression of terroir. https://t.co/hvmI9WLsz7

DRC never disappoints. Great depth. 08 Echezeaux will improve over the next decade 🔥 90 Conseillante is mature. Good aromatics. Savory, smokey, bay leaf. Drink sooner than later. 20 Fever Vaudesir Chablis is fantastic. Lots of texture, poise & tension. Drink now, keep 15+

The blending of reserve wines, maceration and non-dosage have been three key areas where @Laurent_Perrier has innovated in the past. We hear more from oenologist Constance Delaire and taste through the new champagnes. Click  https://t.co/Obb8nkEC4n

Fascinating read about how Campanian winery Feudi di San Gregorio and the archaeological team at Pompeii have joined forces to make wine in the city on vines grown within the city walls. An exciting wine project but also part of a larger cultural drive. https://t.co/PAN5GZXs7G

In the past 2 years ex-Ornellaia winemaker Axel Heinz has been shaking things up at Château Lascombes, the 2nd growth Margaux, where he’s now MD. Here he talks about why he’s changing the Grand Vin and why he has (unusually) made a 100% Merlot. Click https://t.co/kJVcLPLXKD

Just stayed at terrific new address in #Venice @CHARLIEWINES - my review: https://t.co/uqipSyb7l9 - fab 14th century palazzo - rooftop skybar, Murano chandeliers - plus stellar Italian #wine list paired with creative dishes like Risotto Crudo&Cotto with raw and cooked seafood

A new Italian white for me, and I like it. Easy sipping summer wine. @SassiItalyTours @88blewby @Vinofilosofia @_drazzari @AmauryCarrasco @SteveKubota @RobertHunterFL @arcaropeter @pietrosd @mamboitaliano__ @italianwinegal @Fuel55 @MikeyGio85 @S_Andreoni @MistrGoodman @isa2001m

Bordeaux vs Burgundy smack down. Coche Dury showed amazing. 16 Perrieres is youthful. Rich, vibrant, lemon drop spice. Drink now, keep 15+ 04 Rougeots is mature. Lemon, beurre noisette, omelette, fine herbs, nutty. Bright. Drink now.

Brunello di Montalcino is refreshing its narrative with a new sense of terroir, innovation and tradition. Out goes the 5-star annual rating for each vintage while Rosso di Montalcino is starting to vie with it quality-wise. We went there to discover more. https://t.co/DFLdYi010A

English winemakers are looking at 2025 as a ‘vintage of a lifetime’. “The summer was perfect for growing grapes, more reminiscent of a Northern California than one of England,” says winemaker Dan Barwick, who’s preparing an in-depth report for us. Pic - Pinot Meunier at Westwell.

Mauzac is a little known grape enjoying a quiet renaissance in France where it is a key component of Blanquette but also some top still wines. We explored it on a trip to historic Limoux AOP area, home of the first ever sparkling wine in the world. Click https://t.co/sRHZTCIl6O

With London hitting 34°C an extensive vertical tasting of @eldertonwines Barossa Shiraz did not seem a logical choice, but as it turned out it was the perfect occasion to try these beautifully balanced Elderton Command Shiraz wines. Roger Jones reports. https://t.co/BSmSnaxM1K

The Italian Job. 97 Gaja Sori San Lorenzo is in a great spot. Blue & red fruited. Tobacco, mint. Leather & tea. Super fresh. Drink now, keep 10+. 77 Biondi Santi Brunello is great. Polished, good fruit. Drink now. Valdicava needs 5-10 years. 12 Flaccianello is an awesome wine 🔥

For decades, the grape stem was considered the enemy in Bordeaux – a sign of underripeness to be eliminated at all costs. Now, that’s changing. Our latest “Vine to Wine” column by viticulturist Romain Bocchio from Derenoncourt Vignerons Consultants explains why the stem is being

Brilliant to see Côtes du Rhône Blanc in @wine_philosophy’s picks yesterday 👏 Tiny allocations of its big brother, Vin de la Solitude Blanc Châteauneuf-du-Pape arriving in 🇮🇪 this week for the first time 🥳
