Over the last two months we have been delighted to publish seven articles by former recipients of the Young Wine Writer Award. This annual competition has a great track record in bringing budding (hence picture) wine writers into the mainstream. The articles covered a great range of topics and styles but all shared an enthusiasm and professionalism that distinguishes good writing.
In case you missed any of them, they can be read here:
How to be a wine writer by Peter Richards MW, 31 Aug
Leading ladies of the Barossa Valley by Penny Boothman, 25 Aug
The art of ageing by Andy Lloyd, 24 Aug
The dark art of food and wine pairing by Matt Day, 17 Aug
Asian wine market – don't forget India by Ray O'Connor, 12 Aug
Mapping German heritage by Nicola Gutman, 8 Aug
New Zealand – an insider's view by Rebecca Gibb, 20 Jul
Many thanks to them all for contributing!
