I set out on an epic mission this year. The mission: to try and document 365 different wines during 2013. I am on the downhill slope now having over 300 tucked under my belt and less than 65 to go. Is it challenging you ask? I would have to say, no not really. My aim…
Wine, food, sunshine… What more can one ask for? This weekend I was at UnWined – WA’s Boutique Wine & Food Show in Subiaco. I sipped, I swirled, I drank… And I ate and drank even more. Too many goodies under one bright blue Perth sky. If you didn’t make it yesterday, get your A…

I have to admit my interest level for the Good Food & Wine Show (GFWS) jumped through the roof when I found out one of the main sponsors for the event is Riedel. I have long been a fan of the Austrian glassware company. When I was merely 18 I was lucky enough to have…
