The 2017 vintage is a warm year that will require a very poor hand to make an under-ripe Amarone della Valpolicella. With plenty of richness in the wines, will there still be finesse in the mix? winexin.sg/2022/07/28/amaron…

Instagram and Facebook is down, it seems. We found out when the livestream sales we were watching suddenly went dead.
Poor sales person. She was on a roll too.

If you are unvaccinated, at least have the balls to own it, and not try to lie your way through safety protocols designed to protect you and others, with a screenshot.

Pro tip for all our F&B friends:
From tomorrow, some anti-vax mooks might try to pull a fast one by screenshotting friends’ TT app to bluff that they’re vaxxed (the irony). Make them press the refresh button. It’s a new feature! If nothing happens, they’re showing u a screenshot.

There is no truth in the assertion that there is a new COVID strain in Singapore. Phylogenetic testing has shown that the B.1.617.2 variant is the prevalent strain in many of the COVID cases, including in children, in recent weeks in Singapore.

Hollywood history time. Walk a Hollywood lot - particularly @warnerbros in Burbank - and you will inevitably walk past dozens of trailers marked Star Waggons. Ever wonder where they - and the extra g in the name - came from? I did. 1/x

Quite agree. Really excellent. And a good nod back to how bloggers used to be snootily dismissed. I remember, admittedly way back, having to almost bully a publisher to mention my website on a book jacket. Tho I still maintain the term influencer is too loose
A really terrific piece of writing that recognises the role wine influencers now have to play.
Ignore them at your peril

Very saddened to learn of the passing of Steven Spurrier, a gentle man and a gentleman.
And one of the people who can undeniably be said to have helped to change the wine world for the better
