Give them a vintage or two to settle into the new cellar and I think we can expect great things.

@Wildeberg1 must be close to producing the best quality throughout an entire range in SA at the moment. #tealeaf #wonderingbeeste #coteriered #mcc #oldvine #semillon, etc etc. Their range is insane #pound4pound right up there in SA. My humble opinion.

Congratulations once again to @BoutinotWines which tops our popularity chart in the Wine Merchant reader survey for the zillionth time. And well done to *all* the suppliers who made the top 20. Indies were allowed to vote for up to three companies, and received no prompting.

Ten years ago today, the first issue of The Wine Merchant landed on the doormats of unsuspecting independents across the UK. Thanks to everyone who has supported us since that moment. We're privileged to have such lovely readers and friendly advertisers. What a nice industry.

So much heartrending reporting coming out of Ukraine from so many different news organisations. This piece from @BowenBBC and filmed by Fred Scott is a hard but necessary watch, because it captures the horror of war #Ukraine bbc.com/news/av/world-europe…

This is just so clear and concise
Whoopi Goldberg has been suspended by The View following her controversial comments about the Holocaust when she said 'it was not about race' @Baddiel tells @susannareid100 and @adilray that Goldberg's comments reveal 'a lot about the confusions people have around anti-semitism'

When Allegra Stratton married James Forsyth, political Editor of the Spectator - the best man was Rishi Sunak. The lines between our journalists - expecially those at the Spectator and Sun - and our politicians have never been more blurry. And that is a very big problem.

I *think* this is the timeline: There was no party. There may or may not have been a party but I'm assured by people who attended the party that no rules were broken. There was a party but no rules were broken. There was no party. Footage of key aides joking about the party.

I was so thrilled to spend tonight with some great people. Vintners hall is special and David is very much one of the good guys.

The news of this new variant is very concerning. This pandemic is far from over. Let's wear face coverings in crowded places, meet up in well ventilated places and get tested if you have any of symptoms. There are more than 3 - share this image so we can all #beclearonCOVID
