We’re honoured and truly humbled to share that our entry has been published as part of the Jancis Robinson Wine Writing Competition!

Chardonnay grapes.

This year’s theme, “An Ode to a Grape Variety,” invited writers around the world to share stories inspired by the grapes that move them most.

To be featured on the website founded by Jancis Robinson MW, one of the world’s most respected and influential wine writers and critics, is an incredible milestone for us at AdVINEtures.

Jancis has long been a champion of thoughtful, informed wine writing, and her site is a global hub for wine lovers, professionals, and curious drinkers alike. We’re beyond grateful to be included in this year’s competition and excited to share our story with you.

The Champagne guide

If you’re interested in wine and the name Tyson Stelzer doesn’t sound familiar living in the northern hemisphere, trust us it soon will. His resume presents very notable credentials including current International Wine & Spirit Wine Communicator of the Year. Not just content to being a wine writer, he uses all mediums to reach wine enthusiasts worldwide including authoring numerous articles and books, speaking at wine events worldwide, as well as hosting his own television series. AdVINEtures recently had the privilege to correspond with him about wine, specifically Champagne, given the release of the fourth edition of his 15th book, The Champagne Guide, along with the launch of his personalized Champagne Tour next month.

Tyson, as the responses below show, not only knows his subject thoroughly, he communicates it clearly, making it both interesting and it easy to understand.
