Recent ask from a non-wine geek friend of mine - who are some good profiles to follow on Instagram for wine knowledge or just cool pics/info (but please no pontificating…no one needs that in their life)? I’m not all that active on the social medias so hoping others have a better handle on the current scene.
Thanks! Just checked this out. Fire side chats! Didn’t know Charlie lost his legs, thought he was a bike enthusiast so I hope there wasn’t an accident…or is that the green screen effect? Probably showing my social media ignorance. Either way much appreciated!
Stephen does rub some the wrong way, but he has great palate, unique reviews and isn’t a sycophant - he will call out bad wines no matter who makes them.
Same, been 3 years. Had an epic series of wine dinners with him and Bigg from Bangkok in Hong Kong in 2019. Hopefully HKG will open back up without quarantine and I can go visit.
I also follow GrapeChic, and have purchased wine from her. Her content is interesting and entertaining but I feel that she is geared more toward the newbie. That being said, since she is working for Ch Pommard, she can get her hands on some good juice that some retailers cannot obtain. Not sure how the pricing compares though.
