Bubbly in India
During a recent holiday in India and after many dodgy cocktails, mixers (with no ice!) and bottles of local beer, I decided to branch out and try the local ‘sparkling wine’ that I had seen and dismissed on the drinks menu at our little hotel many times before. Having...
Roman Holiday
On a recent weekend away in Rome, after a busy day touring the streets and seeing the usual sights, the time came for the decision to be made where and when and what should we have for dinner? (My favourite decision to make on any holiday!) Obviously, in Rome your...

Cheers to a New Year – and RESULTS!
Bonne Année to everyone from us, the dynamic duo that is Fine Wine Works! Firstly, a warning! Don’t take all this abstemious alcohol-free detoxing too seriously! I find if one is too strict about the dietary and non-drinking regime as one’s New Year’s Resolution then...
