In this second instalment of The Wild Side of Wine, Peter ventures into Lebanon, the country that, ‘gave the gift of wine to the world.’ Much of today’s wine world owes its origins to Lebanon’s ancient Phoenician traders and the country’s epic wine history is captured in breathtaking fashion at the Temple of Bacchus in Baalbek, near the Syrian border. And yet history has not been kind to this volatile region: Peter explores how wine is helping heal the scars of war, and how vinous heroes battled through conflict to make their precious ferments. Along the way we encounter playful goats, cluster bombs, mighty cedar forests, a 2,000-year-old Roman cellar – plus Peter tries his hand at making tabbouleh, orgiastic dancing and balancing rosé wine while paddle boarding. This is a trailer for The Wild Side of Wine – Lebanon. See www.winemasters.tv for the full programmes or more information.

A new wine and travel series in which Peter explores cultures and countries all around the world – from a unique perspective. From reviving ancient human history in Georgia to charting an adventurous future in the Chilean desert, Peter dives fearlessly into history, culture, politics and gastronomy. This is a trip not to miss: local wine and food heroes, off the beaten track, tell intriguing tales and answer awkward questions, in doing so revealing a new side to familiar or far-away places. Guaranteed to tantalise the taste buds and inspire wanderlust!

How much wine is good for you? Scientific research indicates that one of the healthiest ways to eat and drink is what’s known as the Mediterranean diet. This specifies a small amount of wine per day with meals. But how much is ‘a small amount’? TV presenter and Master of Wine Susie Barrie explains as part of the Drink Well Eat Well project.

We’re making an English sparkling wine as part of a charitable project. Here, Susie proves she’s more about quality than quantity. Head over to this page for more!

After harvesting and making the wines, now we blend. This is an important decision, so Peter is largely ignored. Find out more about our English Wine Adventure here.
