The Italians on St James's St

Image

As I explained last Friday when introducing my wine of the week, the autumn tasting season kicked off a week ago with comprehensive presentations of fine Italian wines by Justerini & Brooks and Berry Bros & Rudd, the rival fine wine merchants facing each other across London's St James's Street, pictured left. You can read Walter's assessment of the different ranges when he tasted them this time last year here. See also the tasting article we published about this time last year, Italian battle of St James's Street.

Most unfortunately Walter was hit by a flu bug...
