This week’s Taste features different supermarket rieslings, following the great reception our February riesling from the Czech Republic got. And in Learn, we answer a question about how to find wines you love at a cheaper price. At Wine List HQ, we’re gearing up for our March delivery next week…

We continue revisiting Josh’s 2018 podcast on English Wine with our third instalment. This week, Ben Walgate of Tillingham, East Sussex, explains how he got interested in wine and winemaking, the exciting future of sparkling wine in England and using a 9000-year-old winemaking method.

What are the best Lidl wines? We've been taste testing supermarket wines on our YouTube channel and Lidl always comes out on top when it comes to quality for great value. Here, we round up three of our favourite Lidl wines from our tastings - one red, one white and one sparkling.

Learn about wine as you taste with our monthly wine subscription. But what is a wine subscription and how does it work? We send out two bottles a month with tasting cards and a wine-related lesson to help you develop your palate, terminology and knowledge.

Jura is one of my favourite regions. It has many styles of winemaking – from the classic Burgundian-style to the weird and wonderful. Over on YouTube, myself and Isabelle taste tested 5 wines from Jura, so check that out. In this week's newsletter, I've got three supermarket reds that are worth trying.

For the second part of our deep-dive back into Josh’s 2018 podcast series, An Introduction to English Wine, we revisit his conversation with Kristin Syltevik. Since planting the first vines at Oxney Organic Estate in 2012, Kristin, who traded in a career in public relations for wine, has become a well-respected maker in the industry.

In Learn this week, I answer a burning question. How long can you keep a bottle open for? Oxygen is key here. Oxygen is what ages the wine and eventually makes it turn to vinegar. If you open a bottle and drink a small glass from it, there will only be a small amount of oxygen in the bottle when we put the cork back in.

We’re revisiting the podcast series ‘An Introduction to English Wine by Josh’s Wine List’ from 2018. In this first post, we focus on Davenport Vineyards in East Sussex. Will Davenport started making wine in 1991 and is now one of the most critically-acclaimed and reputable winemakers in the country.

What are the key principles of tasting a wine? It can seem daunting when you start out, but if you know what to look out for you’ll be well-equipped to taste and learn about each wine you try. Here, we’ve put together a short guide on tasting wine based on what we’ve learned over time.

What do you need to do a wine tasting at home? The answer is actually very little. Wine tasting isn’t difficult to do, so long as you’re prepared to try bottles you might not otherwise choose. We’ve put together a guide for putting on your own tasting. So grab some wine, a notebook and let’s begin.

Last week we shipped over 200 boxes from our new warehouse. Last year, I was still working for my old company. shipping wine from our own Camberwell warehouse fills me with joy, and marks a significant chapter for us. In Taste this week, great wines from our cellar. And February wines shipping soon…

It’s been a big week for Wine List HQ. As of Monday, all stock will arrive at our new warehouse. From now on, we’ll be shipping all orders in-house. This is a huge move forwards for us.
