  • Refreshing new series

    I am really enjoying the new series with Anneka. The focus on travel is refreshing and Will and Anneka share a great blend of conversation between wine and the guest. Bring on more!

  • Not sure about the new series

    I used to really enjoy listening to this podcast. Learned a lot about wine, but now it doesn’t seem to leave much room for talk about the wine. It’s almost as if the podcast hosts have forgotten it is a podcast with people listening in and are just having a raucous chit chat about it things I’m really not interested in.

  • Not sure about Will and Anneka

    Listened to Will chatting to Oz Clarke and loved it, then along came Anneka and I’m really not sure. With a guest as well, Anneka’s very talkative style doesn’t seem to leave enough room for the guest, let alone Will and his wines. Enjoyed the earlier series, and was looking forward to a ‘deeper dive’ that the geographic focus could have given, but had to turn off - even with the lovely Clare Balding.

  • Entertaining podcast

    A very enjoyable podcast. Just one complaint; could Will please talk into his microphone? His voice keeps fading in and out (presumably as he is tending to the bottles) and you then miss what he is saying.
