The Rare Tea Lady gets into natural wine

There's a great new video on the Guardian website today of Henrietta Lovell visiting one of the iconic figures of the natural wine movement Thierry Puzelat. A tad rose-tinted admittedly - no hard questions asked - but beautifully shot. Lovell, whose videos about tea you should also watch, is a TV natural. Someone should - and probably will - give her a series.

  1. Fiona, I'd say VERY rose-tinted but that's modern television, I guess (since I don't watch any).

    For a series on natural wine, I'd rather to see someone like Jamie Oliver type of character.

  2. Well don't think you'd get a particularly detached perspective from him either, bless him (as I do admire his enthusiasm). I enjoyed Monty Waldin's series a while back

  3. There is much research to do on the wearing of bright colours and patterns in vineyards and how this can deter unwanted insects and other pests.

  5. thought it was really poor - looked like an advertorial - she clearly didn't have enough knowledge to do a journalist's job here
