But I have also been asked to write a double-length column on the current state of the wine world for the front page of the Weekend FT, now called Life & Arts – in the UK anyway – and will also be publishing this. It's all tied in with the new World Atlas of Wine published yesterday, and launched at the revamped Fortnum & Mason last week. Here are Hugh and me celebrating having all that work behind us. [Note from Julia: all that work and I missed the launch! But at least the sun shone and the grapes tasted sweet on the Wachau and Kremstal terraces.]
