Regions
Every wine has a where
We start with four regions, each with its own character, and add more when we know them well.
Italy
Piedmont
Rolling hills beneath the Alps, where autumn fog settles in the valleys and villages sit on every ridge. Home of Barolo and Barbaresco, but also of everyday Barbera and Dolcetto and sweet, fizzy Moscato d'Asti.
Germany
Mosel
A river that loops through a deep valley lined with some of the steepest vineyards in the world, on slate that holds the day's heat.
Spain
Rioja
Northern Spain along the Ebro river, sheltered by mountains, with three sub-zones: Rioja Alta, Rioja Alavesa and Rioja Oriental. Famous for ageing its wines before release.
New Zealand
Marlborough
The sunny north-east corner of the South Island, between mountains and sea, in the Wairau and Awatere valleys.
