Big news is coming… currently quite small news, with some live events (suitable for beginners) head-to-head pre tastings for some rugby games. Invite some friends and open some bottles! Www.annaspoonerwine.com #wine #winetasting
What a lovely concept, can’t wait to see it all in the flesh
To explore @FTmag’s ultimate wine guide, head to ft.com/wineissue 🍇
I’m very excited (and nervous) to share my piece for @FTMag - the fears, the frantic revision and occasionally a dose of fun… the MW programme is all about the people, so thank you everyone who shaped my journey so far! Let’s keep getting back in the saddle!
‘The word “master” suggests that the MW programme is akin to a post-graduate degree, but I suspect it’s nothing like it. There is no career path that makes it easy to “master” the entire ecosystem of wine,’ says @AnnaSpooner

Eeeeek! Exciting
My glorious pal Dan has his lovely face in the Guardian after what looks like a delightful afternoon spent celebrating @FlintVineyard - if you don’t know them (or him) I encourage you to check both out!
Oh, Hi, @guardian
Some snaps of Sarah Philips and me when she came to visit the vineyard a few weeks ago.

Desperately trying to find a venue in #Bristol for multi-room, large turn out (250 people) wine tasting for next Spring. Somewhere with some personality :) #winetwitter please help me! #winetasting #eventprofs
I've decided to come clean... I love ice and fizzy water in my rosé #ice #rose #icegate

So thrilled to have been long listed again for the Jancis Robinson writing competition! You can read it here (and vote for it too when the time comes!) jancisrobinson.com/articles/… @oldvineproject
So sad to hear of Phil Tuck MW’s passing. He was always incredibly generous with his time and knowledge. Disciplined but decorous, hard nosed but soft hearted. I have a lot to thank him for and the world is a lesser place tonight. Having a glass for you Phil @mastersofwine
Visiting Wrexham FC to see where my uncle, Brian Tinnion, played 279 games for the club he loved #wrexham @VancityReynolds
Light hearted musings on my new blog... And two DELICIOUS wines I would highly recommend (if you can get hold of them!) annaspooner.substack.com/p/t…
My thoughts on Tasting Paper One... I suspect my worst paper, certainly the one with the most clangers! annaspooner.substack.com/p/m…
Restaurant recommendations for tired post-exam MW students in London in a couple of weeks?! Looking for something to look forward to! #restaurant #london

Wow, this is just utter shite from the Telegraph. Most wine will be more expensive. telegraph.co.uk/politics/202…
Dear friends on #winetwitter - does anyone know any wineries with their own glass manufacturing facilities, I think that Gallo does? #help
