IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO READERS BASED IN THE EU Please note: Due to new changes in VAT rules affecting goods shipped from the UK to the EU, as of 1^st July we have temporarily suspended shipping to the EU. If you would like to buy any single issue of Club Oenologique, you can do so, for the same price, directly from the site of our retailer partner, Newsstand. Apologies for any inconvenience.  In our 4^th issue we look at how outsiders (particularly Chinese entrepreneurs) cope in Bordeaux, and we interview Massimo Ferragamo, owner of one of the world’s most luxurious resorts, Castiglion del Bosco, and Jean-Louis Chave, who’s realising a decades-long dream of getting back to St-Joseph. Then there’s Lamberto Frescobaldi on the prison island of Gorgona, and the Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo and its legendary cellar. Outside the wine world the Howard brothers run one of Oregon’s most successful cannabis farms, and there’s whisky, art and architecture, music and photography (you’ll be as entranced by our astonishing images of fermentation vats as by Bert Stern’s unbearably poignant shot of Marilyn Monroe).
