Ladies and Gentlemen, if you scroll down on the right hand side of the page, our dear site has been hacked and filled with unwanted links.
All of our hard work was compromised quite easily and there is nothing we can do about it for the moment, except of course, blame the Russians.
We’ve been delisted from […]

More and more Brits are becoming oenophiles with a third of us having at least ten bottles in storage at home and one in three having visited a vineyard on a recent holiday. However, we’ve still got some way to go with one in four of us thinking Sauvignon Blanc is a brand name […]

So, apparently ‘Blow the Bank’ was set to return to InterWined.com.
It didn’t.
I, personally, have no explanation for this, but can offer my own recipe to pair with just about any dessert wine you can think of…
So here it is… drum roll please:
InterWined’s very own chocolate marble cake recipe.
1) Go to store and purchase one box of […]

InterWined was recently invited to the Millenium Dome in London to sit in a posh box and watch comedian Chris Rock perform.
What was interesting is that Rock’s performances have changed little over the years. While fun, and at times offensive (heavy on the n-word) his topics remain predictable (politics, race, sexuality). Same joke, different […]

InterWined recently attended the best wedding ever. (It was the best, cause I was the best man, LOL!)…
But on the serious tip; the groom gave us the nicest, sweetest gift. It’s like a wristwatch, but for wine. And instead of telling the time, it tells you the temperature of the wine, as it sits inside […]

During the Andre Simon food and drink book awards weeks ago, author John Dickie won a special commendation for his epic tribute to Italian food, Delizia. InterWined admits unfamiliarity with this expansive subject, other than the many trips to Italy where vast amount of this food was consumed — normally with a greater attention to […]

What’s with InterWined.com these days?
Well, what started with a power cut ended with a nasty cold…but now InterWined is back in action and ready to go with a week dedicated to the best in wine and food.
First up, an ‘InterWined in Conversation’ double-bill with 2007 Andre Simon Book Award nominee Eric Arnold, starting with the […]

London Electricity cut the power to InterWined.com’s offices today…apparently it was for some maintenance work.
Not because we didn’t pay our bills or anything.
Promise…
New post Tuesday!

InterWined.com recommends celebrating today in the true New Orleans tradition: with little clothing and loads of wine…and, if you are hardcore Cajun, maybe a freshly slaughtered suckling pig, spit roasted over an open fire out back…
Any wine works at Mardi Gras, really…
InterWined will be sampling a Washington Merlot and an Oregon blend of three grapes…and […]

A recent coffee near Chancery Lane with the highly capable photographer Mark Guthrie, exposed some flaws in InterWined.com’s thinking. Mark, whose favorite section is ‘Blow the Bank’ on Fridays, asked about the criteria for selecting and then reviewing wines. When it was explained that all wines are purchased, usually at retail price, and then — […]

Hi all, I had some wine reviews for posting today…
But last night I had to stop someone who was trying to break into my house around midnight last night.
Won’t bore you with the details, but will say I took him on and won. The fate of this story is in the hands of the courts […]

During a recent Bonfire night bash with a few stars from the soap EastEnders, a curious thought occurred: is there a wine that can be paired with both fireworks and celebrity company?
The answer is definitely not mulled wine, which was widely available at the party. Brits love it, as would Americans, InterWined reckons. There is […]

GALLIVARE, Sweden (AP) — He may look young for his age, but 77-year-old Swedish retiree Per-Eric Henricsson was not flattered when his local supermarket asked him to show ID to prove that he was old enough to buy a case of beer.
Now, Henricsson has asked the National Association of Senior Citizens for help in pressing […]
