Original, thought-provoking, absorbing and impeccably detailed, The World of Fine Wine has set a new standard for wine publications. Along the way it has won many awards including Best Wine Magazine in the World [Gourmand International] and International Wine Publication of the Year [Louis Roederer Award] on multiple occasions. First published in 2004 and now in it’s 77th Edition, each beautifully printed and bound issue is lavishly illustrated, and so rich that it resembles a book more than a magazine. It is not the cheapest wine journal on the market, but when you hold a copy in your hands, you’ll understand why.
The star-studded list of writing contributors includes established names such as Hugh Johnson, Andrew Jefford, Raymond Blake, Michel Bettane, David Schildknecht and Michael Edwards (and many more). The magazine also supports a wealth of less conventional talent, like merchants Terry Theise and our own Rob Walters, and regular Australian contributions from Nick Ryan and Ken Gargett. There are also regular contributions from writers outside the wine industry, which is one of the things that make the magazine so distinctive.
In our opinion, and in the opinion of many others, The World of Fine Wine is simply the most thorough and intellectually stimulating wine publication in the world today.
