Giving a huge shout-out this morning to my friend Sarah Phillips (above). She is one of the best U.S.-based wine writers right now imho and she is currently studying to become an MW.

Her work first came to my attention via the Jancis Robinson wine writing competition (she won, of course).

A few years ago, when I was working in situ with an importer in Miami where she lives, I got to know her and her husband Aidan through attending tastings together. We became fast friends. They are the nicest people and I have deep respect not just for Sarah’s work but also her work ethic and her ecumenical approach to wine writing and education.

She and Amanda Barnes MW will be leading a South American Wines seminar at the Texas Wine School in Houston next Monday morning, March 17.

I don’t get out to many tastings these days and South America is not exactly in my wheelhouse. But I wouldn’t miss Sarah and her tour for the world.

I hope you’ll join me.

Thank you to Sarah and Amanda for coming to Houston!
