Our first competition is to win a fabulous case of wine which will be drawn at the end of June.
Wine and Moore.com will be publishing on-line multimedia wine and wine travel guides.
Each regional guide will comprise a concise wine eGuide (£5.99), a wine travel supplement (£3.99) and a regional database (£7.99). Espanã Vino launches in the spring with our first concise wine eGuide. Download the free sample now and check out what you can find in the guides.
'Accessible, informative and portable' is our maxim! The concept and format of the guides is simple yet each component part works on a standalone basis. They will be updated through the year providing a reliable source of information for your wine buying decisions, whether at home or in the trade. The travel supplement will bring a different slant on holidays and buying visits. Wine and Moore.com guides will be accessible via your pc, tablet, laptop or smart phone.
The wine author is David Moore, an award winning wine writer. He has written about Spain, France and South America for many years and has won all the three major annual international awards for his work.
First we bring you España Vino. Spain is an exciting country with a diverse climate and terroir and equally diverse styles of wine. All the country’s regions will be covered in detail with profiles on many hundreds of wineries which we refer to as bodegas. The e Guide will be simple to use with easy navigation links. More detailed wine and winemaking information will be available in the searchable database with individual wine as well as bodega profiles. It could take a lifetime just to try all the wines!
The next guide we will be bringing you is Le Midi. This geographically covers a huge area of France. All the southern wine regions will be fully profiled, including the Rhône Valley, Provence, Corsica, Languedoc-Roussillon and South-West France. A vast array of wines will be covered.
Then later this year....... South Africa and the wine countries of South America; Argentina, Chile and Uruguay will be covered in Cape to Cape.
These will be written by Janey Gilbert who has promoted many travel products over the years. The regional supplements will provide visitors to any of the wine regions, whether on holiday or a wine buying trip, with useful local knowledge and information about where to stay on a vineyard or close by and not forgetting great places to eat. For tourists wanting a holiday venue which is a little different or off the beaten track, the travel supplements will provide an excellent backdrop.
The site aims to have a wide appeal to anyone who loves wine and is keen to extend their knowledge, be they enthusiasts, wine professionals or sommeliers. The guides will provide ratings on quality and value and will have lists of recommendations.
The database facility which will be updated throughout the year will provide a really useful resource for all wine buyers.
Designed to provide a little light entertainment and test your knowledge. All the answers (assuming you don’t know them already!) can be found either in the Espanã Vino Sample Guide or the two Glossaries. The first competition will be drawn at the end of June and the prize is a case of interesting, good value Spanish and French wines.
We will be Blogging regularly and of course we are on Facebook and Twitter!
