The third Thursday in November used to be a date of note in the oenophile’s diary. Since 1985, it had been decreed as the official release date of Beaujolais Nouveau, an annual cause for celebration of the fruity, purple-tinged debutante.

The term ‘small but mighty’ could have been coined to describe Tasmania, at least in terms of its winemaking prowess. With just over 26,000 square miles of land to its name and a mere 2,000 hectares of vineyard plantings, the state could so easily be overshadowed by the vast Australian mainland to its north. But take a close look at the results from the Decanter World Wine Awards (DWWA) judging in May and it seems that Tasmania’s day in the (albeit cooler-climate) sun has arrived.

Chile, often referred to as ‘the long, thin country,’ boasts a rich tapestry of microclimates and grape varieties, underpinned by a deep-rooted winemaking heritage. Its striking flora and fauna can call to mind a Jurassic Park-style ‘land that time forgot’ – and that metaphor can be extended to the country’s vineyards.

The past two months have passed all too quickly. Newly unshackled from full-time work, in mid-February I escaped soggy Britain and chased the sun: from Bali, to New Zealand and on to Australia, where I spent four weeks in Sydney with family and friends; decompressing, reassessing, making some new discoveries – and, yes, eating and drinking. A lot. Back at my desk now…While I was in Sydney I signed up for a food tour of Chinatown with a company called Local Sauce. Worth it.

Along with more rain than the country really needs, this spring has brought a profusion of excellent cookbooks. And here, later than I’d like in some cases, are just some of the books that are whetting my appetite. https://t.co/LDtdra8xjl
Happy publication day to @edentravels for Cold Kitchen, a travelogue and memoir with recipes. The idea: that the kitchen is a portal “offering opportunities to cook, imagine and create ways to other times, other lives and other territories." A brilliant read, pub @BloomsburyCooks https://t.co/PHFB0Jhki5
Tasting my way around Sydney's Chinatown on a recent trip, I learned a lot about the history and evolution of Australia's Chinese communities – and about the challenges facing Chinatowns in Sydney and beyond. My latest post... https://t.co/nswjDfuyRB
