Issue 03 explores provenance through the people, places and philosophies shaping wine, hospitality and the wider drinks industry today.

Too often, provenance is reduced to geography alone — a vineyard, a region, a climate. But throughout this issue, provenance reveals itself as something much broader. It exists in relationships, in craftsmanship, in hospitality, in stewardship and in the decisions people make over time.

Across wine, cider, spirits and food, the conversations within these pages return repeatedly to questions of identity, care and connection — not only to land, but to the people and communities behind what we taste and share.

Inside, you’ll find:

Cover Story - Alex Watson on building a modern spirits brand

In the Vines - Sophie Christmann on the next generation of the Pfalz

The Art of Winemaking - Romain Ott on embracing diversity in Provence

Sommelier Series - Hannah Gillies and the changing role of the modern sommelier

Wine Culture - Joe Johnston on the changing wine culture of the modern pub

Fine Wine - Gary Owen on why wine should never lose its human side

We hope these pages encourage you to slow down a little, look a little closer and reflect on the people and stories behind what ends up in your glass and on your plate.
