What’s wrong with it? Oxidative style, probably goes well with Comte cheese (also from the Jura).
I enjoy most Jura wine styles…

Started reading it - seems like a good book. Certainly received a good review on @jancisrobinson.com from Tamlyn Currin - “…an exceptional, thought-provoking book.” Early days for me, but I would tend to agree.

Can I get away with Sherry as one wine style? If so, there’s so much diversity and good value out there.

Nice selection, though Clai Brombonero Refošk isn't a white wine...

I find these really interesting. I have the series 2021, 2022, 2024, but am missing 2023. Could you let me know where I could find it (or DM me a link)?

Having just been at a dinner with Mateja Gravner, I would have to say anything from the Gravner winery. Whether they satisfy the natural purists may be in question, but I can think of few better wines made with a natural wine philosophy.

For anyone not familiar with why Gravner’s wines are so special, this is a good background read: www.the-buyer.net/people/produ...

A good read.
Had the pleasure of being at a Gravner dinner at eòrna in Edinburgh last night with Mateja Gravner.

My reaction related to one of those was, there’s an awful lot of maths that isn’t data science…

Just saw Lisa Allan from Reframe Overhead present at the ICAEW’s annual Charity Conference here in the UK. Excellent material, and thought-provoking as treasurer of a small charity.
