For over 20 years I've eaten and drunk my way around the world.

I still live in Ireland and, as wine editor of The Gloss, take take an active interest in the Irish wine scene. But, specialising in the wines of the Southern Rhone, I also spend time in Provence, so www.provencefoodandwine.com carries details of my best gastronomic discoveries there. Readers in 75 countries already...

I hope that you are one of them! Watch out for three new posts every week or follow me on Twitter.
