decanter expert

The physical copy of this month’s Decanter Magazine arrived today, with many thanks to Michael (and no thanks to Brexit!). He tried to post it from London and was told it would have to go Priority Post as they were no longer offering regular post to Europe because of the various strikes, etc and that would have cost him 59£ . Like what? So I told him I’d try and find another option. But then it was Michael to the rescue when he found out the son of his friend Pankaj would be in Barcelona soon and could post it from there. Phew! I always say it never feels real until I’m holding that baby in my hot little hands.

And check this out. For the first time I’ve been included on the
Decanter Experts page and like… OMG.
Seriously OMG.

oranges, sevilla, seville, spain

last oranges (3)

The 50,000 or so orange trees in Sevilla have mostly been harvested by now but I came across these hold-outs in the Plaza Santa Cruz yesterday. My guess is that they leave them up longer in the centre for the tourists. Anyhow… this also means that the blessed azahar can’t be far behind. Can’t wait.

bilbao wine bars (1)Jonathan Hernando García – owner of Cork

I arrived in Bilbao with a full itinerary of places to visit and revisit, armed with recommendations by friends and contacts from both Spain and abroad. Two of the most delightful finds were these two very different wine bars; one was just around the corner from the hotel, the other across the river in the old town. I loved them both. Stay tuned for my online Decanter wine-lovers city review…
