Customers regularly ask us for a brief outline of the characteristics of the main grape varieties when browsing our shop shelves so we wondered whether we should set ourselves a challenge and attempt to provide a brief tweet for each; a snapshop of each major variety in no more than 140 characters. They will necessarily be opinionated (us? never!) and will inevitably exclude the finer points, but the idea is to give you a flavour of each variety, what we look for when tasting samples and what you should therefore find when you make a purchase. Please let us know if you’d like us to feature your favourite variety; alternatively just leave it to us and we will work through them in random order…
