#160 Weekly Update Royal Wine ️London Wine Fair 🦣Mammoths in wine cellar Wine soon unsafe to drink?

Weekly Update with a straight UK focus this week. Feedback on
London Wine Fair that will be wrapped up in a separate episode,
Royal warrant, Judgement of London and the trend towards smaller
glasses in gastronomy. We also talk about the idea of labelling
wine as unsafe in the US and mammoths in a wine cellar. Yes.
That’s not misspelled. Mammoths.
