Le Figaro calls her "the undisputed mistress of the kingdom of wine". Jancis Robinson MW OBE creator of the Oxford Companion to Wine and numerous other wine reference books, is perhaps the world's leading wine author. Her amazingly informative website JancisRobinson.com attracts over 80,000 paying members to her famous 'Purple Pages', home to all her inside wine information.
For those of you don't know about Jancis, visit the free section of her website. This starts with wine beginner's information, like how to open and stopper wine, matching wine with food and cooking with wine through to how to choose, store, cellar and serve wine, and how to become a wine taster, with lots about how wine critics score wines and what this might mean for you.
You'll see that Jancis takes much of the mystery out of wine – hers is perhaps the most user-friendly and uninitimidating approach we have seen.
This is a fantastic offer! For an introductory annual membership of £46 (approx. A$80) p.a. instead of the standard rate of £69 (approx. A$120) – a saving of £23 (approx. A$40) – you will have access to Jancis's Purple Pages, which include:
-
thousands of international and Australian wine reviews and articles
-
a lively community of wine enthusiasts in more than 70 countries
-
news, views and downright gossip that drips from Jancis's purple pen
-
thousands of Jancis's tasting notes with scores and, unusually, suggested drinking dates
-
exclusive online access to the multi award-winning Oxford Companion to Wine (3rd Edition now fully online and searchable)
-
exchange views with Jancis directly via the members' forum.
Jancis offers you a 2 week money-back guarantee if you are not fully satisfied with her service – but we doubt this will be the case.
There is also a monthly rate of £6.99 for those who don’t want to shell out a lot. Want to find out what others think? You can read plenty of testimonials here »
