This new magazine is built around wine as a metaphor for sociability. Its acronym name stands for ‘Bring Your Own Bottle’ and represents people bringing their own stories and experiences to the table.

Written by wine lovers, many of whom aren’t trained journalists, the stories showcase great knowledge of wine, with the team and the people they meet expressing their passion in a relaxed tone that will be familiar to Noble Rot readers—two completely different magazines, but they complement each other.

This edition is themed ‘Not Only Sparkling’ and taps into the rhetoric surrounding low intervention winemaking, as well as the importance of allowing ‘places, grapes and people to speak without distortion’. Inside, head sommelier at Royal Champagne, Philippe Marques, recounts his discovery of the gospel gastronomic pairing of pepper and wine, a selection of Champagne aficionados share their imagined futures of the industry, and Oliviero Lucchetti offers an insight into wine from the Italian city of Marsala.
