http://drinkingoutsidethebox.blogspot.com/2009/06/swizzing-around-m-wines.html
Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Monday, June 08, 2009. Swizzing around M&S wines. Just marking time before going out for what may be a troublesome evening with Robert Joseph. And potentially Adrian Atkinson, ex-Oddbins buyer and now a man breathing life into the Pernod Ricard wine portfolio. But the day has been taken up with a delicious lunch at Chez Bruce. Veal cheek to die for) accompanied by wines from Domaine Gayda. Fox Hollow Single Vineyard Verdelho 2008 (£9.99)...View m...

Drinking Outside The Box: October 2008
http://drinkingoutsidethebox.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Friday, October 17, 2008. Don't Blame Me, I'm French. At around £6-7 bring a smile to your face in the way that simiularly priced reds seldom do. That is your job.'. So in other words, if white Bordeaux sales are not what they could be in the UK, it is my fault. Nothing to do with the people who make it. It's my fault. Now I understand.

Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Monday, June 22, 2009. This will be my last post on this site as I'm moving over to a new domaine at www.simonwoods.com. See you over there soon! Sunday, June 21, 2009. Domaine Saparale and Leonard Cohen. It's 2 in the morning and I'm still up. Why? She's gone to bed now, as has Jill, leaving me alone with a BBC4 concert of Leonard Cohen and the remains of our last stimulating bottle. It's from Corsica, the Domaine Saparale 2006 Corse Sartene.

Drinking Outside The Box: To soak or not to soak?
http://drinkingoutsidethebox.blogspot.com/2009/06/to-soak-or-not-to-soak.html
Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Tuesday, June 02, 2009. To soak or not to soak? Power Point presentations. Is there anyone anywhere whose life has benefited from one? Normally, the guy in charge puts some slides on a screen, reads what's one the slides, gives you a hard copy of what is one the slides plus a CD of what is on the slides and then shuffles into 'any questions' mode. The slogan should be 'Power Point - how to make interesting things boring'. 12 month loans uk. These...

Drinking Outside The Box: April 2008
http://drinkingoutsidethebox.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Sunday, April 20, 2008. A week at the International Wine Challenge hasn't diminished my enthusiasm for decent juice. However, a final day of first round judging that saw our panel bin a number of bland, boring wines - fault-free but character-free too - left me craving something decidedly left-field (when did I start using the term 'left-field'? How many Brits are aware that the phrase relates to the University of Illinois College of Medicine?

http://drinkingoutsidethebox.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Tuesday, April 28, 2009. Jewell in the Crown. Good to see that former Sainsbury's buyer Laura Jewell MW has been take on as head of SPAR's wine department - a sound, fun lady with a passion for wine. Miracles are probably not on the horizon, but let's hope she is able to inject the same passion for good, sensibly priced wines that ex-SPAR-er Philippa Carr (another Mistress of Wine) has in the last few years at Asda. Monday, April 27, 2009. Accord...

http://drinkingoutsidethebox.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Drinking Outside The Box. Wine for people who have a life. Monday, March 30, 2009. When Burgundy gets it right. 2001, a year that has been alittle chunky for a while, but on this evidence is beginning to relax a little. Sadly this was the last bottle of the Potel, but there are a few other 2001s lurking somewhere in the cellar - I'm looking forward to them. Sunday, March 22, 2009. Asda price, jolly nice - Argie Malbec. 163;424. Bargain, fill yer boots. Tuesday, March 17, 2009. So there's no point going o...
