In this video business expert Yannick Loué at Le Vignoble gives great advice on how to select the best wine for your business event.
Yannick explains what he would offer for an event with no formal sit down meal and a dinner party: “If you have the task of selecting wines for a dinner party, make sure you are understand the food which will be served and also the time of the year.

Following a fine summer for growing grapes in the UK, Devon vineyards have a lot to celebrate and an Exeter city centre food store is promoting their success. A range of locally produced Devon wines is being launched at the Real Food Store on Tuesday 19 November with a special wine tasting evening between 6pm and 8pm.
Three vineyards, all within 12 miles of the city, are supplying wine to the community owned store which opened in March 2011. Pebblebed, at Clyst St George, Yearlstone, at Bickleigh, and Manstree based at Shillingford St George.

Owner, Samantha Pounds, approached the bank when the owners of the building declared their intention to sell the property and the restaurant’s future was put into question.
With the additional support of £150,000 from the Regional Growth Fund, Samantha was also able to secure future employment opportunities for the local area.
The Regional Growth Fund is a government scheme which aims to help...

Notwithstanding the 2012 deluge, the progress of English wines in the last year has been remarkable. You can hardly open a paper or magazine, or a wine website or trade publication, without a eulogy to England appearing.
Take this from Berry Brothers & Rudd in October last year. They went on record in the Independent..."The quality (of English wine)... stands up to the rest of the world and, in the case of some sparkling wines, exceeds their rivals."
The newspaper asked "Is English wine now exceeding the quality of French?" and returned the answer: yes. "Start with...

It may not be a bumper but local vineyards are excited about a good 2013 harvest.
" We've got good crops on most varieties" says Yearlstone's vineyad manager Roger White. " The sparkling wine grapes are dripping bunches and even our cool climate reds are well laden. Yearlstone is expecting around 10 tons from it's own grapes, compared to a target of 15.
" Vines go in two year cycles so last year's washout reduced the potential , " says Roger. " But not only will local vineyards be able to restock empty cellars but the hot...
