During the Australia First Families of Wine dinner at Skylon last week, I caught up with the rather dashing Johann Henschke, a sixth-generation member of iconic estate Henschke in the Barossa Valley, to talk about the bumper 2012 vintage, cork vs screwcap, Australian wine in China, and whether he plans to take over the running of the estate.

About Me
- Wine and the City
- I'm a journalist with a passion for wine, food and travel. By day I work for The Drinks Business magazine and by night I attend events in exploration of what London has to offer the urban wine lover. I aim to recount my findings in this blog. I also strive to prove that wine, like art, is subjective. There are no right or wrong answers. Wine is something everyone can savour and enjoy.
