What makes us the best importers of wine in Wales? The simply answer is the wines we sell. But it’s not me saying this, it’s a host of professional tasters. Here is a thread of reviews from the talented Tamlyn Currin as she tastes our wines for JancisRobinson.com

So folks as you can see all these wines from around the world are great. I just hope you track them down and give the a go. Massive thanks to the team at @JancisRobinson! Cheers.

Here is my thread updating the ongoing circus of Vi1. As you may recall this is a document with absolutely no purpose and will add a further barrier (& cost) to trade to EU #wines if introduced. The industry wants them removed permanently & immediately for all wines. 1/15
Since the middle of 2019 the trade has been calling out the nonsense that is vi1 and demanding that first they are not introduced for EU wines but also scrapped for ROW wines where this form IS already used. 2/15
As part of the FTA the was agreed on Xmas Eve 2020 Vi1’s were kicked down the road until July 2021. Along with the new rules for organic wines requiring additional paperwork and certifications . 3/15

Once again this evening I got asked why the UK doesn’t stop buying wine from the EU and replace that with ROW wines. So please understand the follow facts and your understand the answer.
1) The uk consumes 12M bottles per day, but the the UK produces 12M bottles per year, of which most of this is expensive sparkling wine.
2) currently 66% of this daily volume comes from the EU the rest is from ROW.
3) ROW are mostly at production capacity and sell most of there volume annually. So to change the demographics would be challenging and requires global cooperation.

January this year I posted a thread which outlined the issues my company was facing just 15 days into Brexit & the truly negative effects that were being realised. Now over 5 months later have things improved? 1/19
Now we have a better understanding of what Brexit really means to our business, our suppliers globally & the logistic issues. None of it is easy & none of it has been fun to deal with. It’s actually been the most difficult 5 months of my career. 2/19
The first major hurdle is getting the entire supply chain to work as one. For decades producers, shippers, importers and retailers all knew their place in the cycle which was seamless. That is now not the case & the chain is fragmented at best. 3/19

I have been set a challenge by @richardsiddle to find any positives of Brexit and how it will be good for my industry. I am quite a positive guy so here is what I have come up with thus far.
So it’s true the grey market is dramatically reduced in the UK now and the direct to consumer mail order companies can’t bypass UK duties. So that is good. But it’s a tiny part of the UK wine industry.
Hmm starting to struggle now... if government did remove Vi-1 that would be a major boost to the trade and would make shipping interesting wines from non EU countries more viable. So that would be a Brexit bonus if Gove stopped being a numpty.

Here we are on the other side of Easter and still those #teethingproblems are biting. Over the past 3 months, since my first thread, I have seen things that really are depressing. Here is my next short thread.
Having over 24M hits on my Twitter account has lead to me to talk with prominent politicians on the opposition benches. However I still haven’t had the conversation with @michaelgove that he promised.
So what’s new since my appearance on @newsnight and @mrjamesob? Simple put very little. Supply chains are still struggling to cope, cost of logistics continue to rise & still total silence from the Tory-UKIP party.

We have now entered March on our #Brexit journey & as each day passes I get a clearer view of just how badly the Government have let down the U.K. with their shoddy little deal. In this thread I reveal all I have learnt in past couple of weeks. 1/23
The cost of importation of wine just keeps going up. I have now had to get another accreditation from the seven I already have, this time with Organic bodies as an Organic wine importer. This maintains status quo from 2020. 2/23
If you import any organic products inc wine from July 1st you must be registered. Your organic wines have to be stored separately and we are due to have an inspection to check our warehouse is real I guess. What a waste of time. 3/23
