John Clarke

With an almost lifelong interest in wine, I was delighted to be able to share my tastes and my thoughts with others after I was asked to compile a series of wine round-ups for the i newspaper in the UK. That was five years ago. Today, I’m still sampling wines from around the world and writing about them for the “IndyBest” section of  The Independent online at https://www.independent.co.uk/author/john-clarke . I believe it’s my job to inform, educate and hopefully entertain.
