The Guardian’s drinks critic Fiona Beckett is a legend of the wine-writing world. Her work as a judge, food writer and pairings expert has made her one of the best in the industry – and today she joins host David Kermode to discuss a life in wine.
Plus, there’s a brand new drink on the show this week: Solassa is a low-alcohol aperitif from India, designed to be the perfect companion to the subcontinent’s food. Kermode hears from its founders about the process of creating their dream spirit.
As ever, there are also our top picks from the IWSC medal-winner shelf.
