I was probably about 12, she came to our school and I couldn’t have been less interested in meeting a not particularly famous lady. I have literally never forgotten meeting her.

Fantastic cheese and wine tasting with the irrepressible @francisgimblett to start the weekend. It was fascinating to hear from @BreakyBottom_'s Peter Hall while sampling a couple of his elegant wines. Hope to visit the vineyard one day soon. 🍇

Glad you enjoyed the 2010 Chard/Pinot Reynolds Stone - he designed our first logo and label!
This is how I’m starting my #BEWE but it certainly won’t be the last. It’ll help me choose the next ones - Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, Bucks or Essex? Or the whole lot? Why not? My brother’s in my bubble and we’ve got a socially-distanced wall we can perch on...

We are looking forward to tasting this. Would be nice to be able to share a bottle with friends soon.
Happy #BigEnglishWineEaster everyone! I've popped open the delicious @DermotSugrue Cuvée Boz while I take a brief commercial break in between #BEWE Live chats. This is an energetic, pure BdB that pairs beautifully with salmon sashimi tonight.

@BreakyBottom_ built - 1827. Peter's 1st wife Diana worked with Peggy Angus who lived at 'Furlongs'-close friend of Ravilious-they created beautiful ceramics and wall paper designs together.@NTHepburn @CharlestonTrust @loveemyhats @corneyandbarrow @andrewcjefford @ozclarke
That looks so very much like @BreakyBottom_ Vineyard at nearby Rodmell.
The bottle looks equisite - such wonderful way to honour such a special brother. @HenryButlerWine @EmmaCRice @blackbirdOlivia
Seriously notable new release from previous @theIEWA trophy winner @DermotSugrue... 🥂🔥 #englishwine dermotsugrue.com/product/sug…

Great to celebrate 2 of the most influential women from great vineyards established in the early days of UK wine!
A new #EnglishWine book is always something to look forward to. A pleasure to receive this pre release copy of Liz Sagues new new 'Sussex by the Glass', releasing on 8th March to celebrate International Women's Day, focusing on @Bolneyestate & @RidgeviewWineUK. More next week.

Thanks Libby! Glad you enjoyed @BreakyBottom_ and Peter! By the way he is a true hermit. Still labelling each bottle himself keeps him busy! @GreatBritWine @InglisHall @DermotSugrue @ianpuddick @TweetaDean @ozclarke

@BreakyBottom_ Groundbreaking and set the standard. Current offerings still the best example and bargains for such finesse and quality.
