Hi - A friend and I always used to enjoy Beaujolais night (Yes, I know it's said, but we had fun!) when we were
young and nowadays it is pretty to find now we live out in the sticks. So
this year, we thought, why not go and get some ourselves! The plan is to
use Eurostar - only problem is I don't know which station we need to get to or where
to stay - if anyone has any info, guidance or knows of a great place to
stay - please let me know!! many thanks

Each year at 12:01 AM on the third Thursday of November, millions of bottles of Beaujolais Nouveau begin a journey from a little French village to locales across the globe. Wine stores and cafes enthusiastically greet these shipments with signs and banners proclaiming "Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé!" "The New Beaujolais has arrived!". With this begins the annual celebration of the arrival of the French wine Beaujolais Nouveau, a celebration steeped in tradition, frivolity, grandeur, legend, and of course, fabulous wine.
Wine in the Bible Commentary
Wine is referenced in many Bible passages: Genesis 9:21 21 - And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. 24 - And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. Genesis 14:18 18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and...
IntoWine.com’s “Top 100 Most Influential People in the U.S. Wine Industry” - 2018
There is currently a raging debate as to the validity of what an “influencer” is. Who are the most influential wine people in the United States, and how exactly do you define ‘influential?’ Does an influential mean a person who moves markets, impacts consumers, inspires winemakers, forms policy,...
The IntoWine.com Annual “Top 100 Most Influential People in the U.S. Wine Industry" – 2012
People love lists; they can be a great source of education and discussion. But making a list such as this is not an easy process. Who are the most influential wine people in the U.S., and how exactly do you define ‘influential?’ Does influential mean people who move markets, impact consumers, inspire winemakers, and create debate? In a word, yes. These 100 people, from winemakers to law makers, bankers to bloggers, and sommeliers to celebrities are definitely people who influence wine; how it is made, marketed, perceived, sold, shipped, purchased and shared.
The IntoWine.com 2nd Annual “Top 100 Most Influential People in the U.S. Wine Industry" – 2013
Our 2013 iteration of this list is intended as a source of education and discussion. The making of this list is never an easy process. Who are the most influential wine people in the United States, and how exactly do you define ‘influential?’ Does influential mean people who move markets, impact consumers, inspire winemakers, form policy, and create debate? Yes. Though some decry the consolidation of the wine industry (and that is an issue worth considering) we are not trying to suggest who is “good” or “bad” within America’s wine industry. We merely define the Top 100 people, from winemakers to law makers, bankers to bloggers, and sommeliers to celebrities who influence wine; how it is made, marketed, perceived, sold, shipped, purchased, shared and consumed. As was true in 2012, we sought help to assemble this list people from a diverse group of people and we are grateful for their input. And we chose to release it today, January 29th, as it was on this day in 1919 when the pathetic policy of Prohibition was ratified; the effects of this lunatic legislation still evident in our country’s inability to ship and sell wine across state lines. We honor winemakers, wine drinkers and wine lovers of every conceivable demographic. Use this list, comment on it, share it with everyone, learn from it, and continue your joy of being IntoWine.
