September highlights, and what's to come in October

SEPTEMBER 
on JancisRobinson.com was a harlequin of wine, as ever. There was particular focus on Germany, China and the nascent 2012 vintage in France but other topics covered included the new St-Émilion classification, ethics in South Africa plus a host of tasting notes from Beaujolais, Sherry, Lisboa and beyond. Here are some highlights:
OCTOBER promises to be just as busy, with the following articles due to be published:
  • A massive tasting article on the best of Piemonte by Jancis and Walter
  • Impressive 2010 Crus Bourgeois – nearly 200 of them
  • Even more about That Book (our special offer will remain 'sticky' at the top of the list of Latest articles for a while)
  • Many more tasting notes on fine Italians and fine Iberians
  • A compilation of reviews of some of France's greatest wine bargains, from the Languedoc, of course
  • and more on Croatia, Argentina and Chile 
  • and Buckingham Palace champagne
  • as well as a wide range of retailers' selections including Laithwaites and The Wine Society 

And don't forget ... our free events diary has over 30 events listed for October. Here are just a few of them (all UK but we'd like to encourage organisers of wine events anywhere in the world to post details of them):
