Tam has been doing the Christmas shift again this year, whittling the many words in the many wine books of 2016 into the finely carved shapes of her review articles, both enthusiastic and forthright. For those interested in Wine Behind the Label, Neville Blech has offered fellow Purple Pagers a 20% discount. For details, please see this post on the forum.

The complete list of articles is given below, with links, most recent at the top.

If you are looking for more on food and wine matching, I would highly recommend two excellent and attractive ebooks by Fiona Beckett, wine writer for the UK's Guardian newspaper but also known for her website Matching Food & Wine. Both 101 Great Ways to Enjoy Sherry and 101 Great Ways to Enjoy Cheese & Wine can be bought (£4.50 each, converted into other currencies if you live outside the UK) and downloaded from the shop page of her site.
