1 Aug 08.00 London time - We will be closing this offer in 24 hours' time, so if you do want to take advantage of it, or recommend it to your friends, now is the time! 

To celebrate the fact that some rather important sporting events are taking place in the city in which JancisRobinson.com is based, we're making a very special offer.

We're offering 12 months' membership of our award-winning Purple Pages, source of so much valuable inside information on wine, for just £48.88 (or equivalent in your chosen currency) instead of the usual £69 - a saving of £20.12 (geddit?), or around $32, €26 or Aus$30. See details below.*

For fear of irritating the overbearing organisers LOCOG, and so as not to contravene those precious sponsorship deals, we won't actually mention L*nd*n 2012. Nor do we dare spell out the name of the Games themselves. But you know what we're on about, right?

Here's what Purple Pages, updated daily, offer:

• More than 70,000 wine reviews - from Penfolds Bin 51 Riesling 2012 back to bottles (supposedly) from the 18th century
• More than 9,000 articles good enough to win JancisRobinson.com the inaugural Louis Roederer International Wine Website of the Year award
• The world's only online Oxford Companion to Wine (RRP £40/$65)
• Exclusive online access to all the maps in the World Atlas of Wine (RRP £35/$50)
• 'The most courteous wine forum on the planet' (according to La Revue du Vin de France) and a hugely informative one too, thanks to contributions from members in almost 100 countries
