| They Drink Wine in Joburg? | Friday, 20 February 2009 |
|
Brandon Marc encourages Joburgers to take trips down to the Cape to visit their favourite wine cellars.
"Yes, of course all wine that is available in Cape Town is available in Joburg, but a Joburg resident cant exactly take a drive to his favourite cellar and throw a case in the boot before heading off home... or could they?"

| La Spinetta Vigneto Biancospino Moscato dAsti | Thursday, 19 February 2009 |
|
An article on Enobytes.com talks about this white wine from Piedmont. Do not be intimidated by the name though, apparently its pretty simple to break down and digest.

| Chinese Wine Culture(s): Part I | Friday, 13 February 2009 |
|
Enobytes.com features a very interesting article regarding the Chinese Wine Culture.
"I freely admit to being neither a Chinese historian nor a Chinese literature specialist; but its safe to say the wonders of Tang Dynasty poetry would be unimaginable without wine and, further back, whole dictionaries have been devised to explain the types of plants and foodstuffs that appear in the early literature."

Peter Nixon talks about what consequences the Australian fires and drought have on their wine industry.
