September was a very busy month, including a week in South Africa for Cape Wine 2018, as well as lots of production work on a forthcoming series of A Glass With, the podcast I produce with Olly Smith.

Here’s everything I wrote in September:

• On JancisRobinson.com:

  • 24 tasting notes on some ancient and venerable fortified wines from Rivesaltes (subscription needed)

  • My Spittoon column about whether gold wine bottles improve quality (free to read)

  • 58 tasting notes on Californian wines from Berry Bros & Rudd (subscription needed)

  • A wine of the week inspired by my visit to South Africa - pictured above (free to read)

  • 15 tasting notes on the latest releases from Vouvray producer Huet - and some older vintages (subscription needed)

• My Living France column featured Château Mouton-Rothschild

• My Drinks Retailing News considered a future without wine

• And there were three posts on the blog
