Seasonal cooking has been in Hannah's veins since a young age, as has an entrepreneurial spark. From selling cakes at the end of her garden in her early teens, through to setting up her first space in Wiltshire in 2020, Hannah has always wanted to showcase her love and creativity for seasonal cooking that spotlights the best of local, wild produce. After a successful string of Supper Clubs and recipe boxes in lockdown, today Herbs and Wild is a beautiful, permanent feature of The Guild, just outside Wilton House and Hannah's crafted two delicious, Spring recipes just for Sociovino.

There are over 10,000 single grape varieties in the world and Italy is home to a whopping 2,000 of those. Safe to say we are spoilt for choice when it comes to Italian wine, but this vast variety can also be a little daunting when it comes to making a selection. So, we are here to guide you through the abyss! Welcome to our guide to the world's native grape varieties.

From rose to violet and honeysuckle to blossom, floral wines possess aromas that confuse our olfactory functions more than most wines. But where do the confusion - and the aromas - really come from?

Sustainability Certified and multi-award winning, the Pfaffl Winery has gone from strength to strength as it's produced wines across the generations. Fully family-run and focused on celebrating the traditions of Austria's wine history, Pfaffl create stunning wines under an inspiring philosophy that is constantly evolves as more opportunities to respect and protect their land, and the wider planet arise. Dora sat down with Heidi, General Manager of this Austrian gem, to discuss family history, heritage, winemaking techniques and traditions, and, of course, what's in their beautiful bottles - one of which graces our Autumn Season Subscription Case.

Sustainability has long played a role in shaping the way we shop when it comes to wine. Strangely, even the most conscious of consumers seem to lower their standards when it comes to selecting spirits. We think that's largely due to a lack of education on and awareness around spirit producers working hard to place sustainability at the heart of their distilleries. Tom sat down with some of the producers we're fortunate enough to work with, to dig into the philosophies shaping their bottles.
