I haven’t always been a wine scene insider.
Light years ago when I was a London commuter with four young kids all demanding bedtime stories, my wine selection criteria were – Is it
wet, cheap and drinkable (roughly in that order)?
Slowly, though, I began to realise that increases in price and in quality did not always march in step with one another.
Finding out why began a journey that eventually led me to wine journalism, wine communication and judging in international wine competitions.
Nevertheless, years later, I still get boyish delight from finding an inexpensive wine that tastes like something at two or three times the price.
