Time was that the sommelier was a feared aspect of a proper restaurant, now a new generation of informed and savvy hipsters has created a scene around wines that focus on ‘natural’ methods or intense locality. Wines that respect traditions such as the quirky wines of the Jura, have risen to prominence. Add in an open exchange of wines shared on Instagram and a new set of wines with hashtags such as #UnicornWine #SommelierCatnip or #WinePorn has been created. Is this something good for wine lovers and restaurants or simply a celebrity culture gone mad?
