Facebook: Save the wine column

 Tim Atkin MW

Following the slashing of Tim Atkin MW's Observer wine column, a Facebook group was formed yesterday which already has over 150 members. To join as well as see the numerous comments please click here. It would be great to see the group become as large as possible. Let's show the Observer that we appreciate good writing and that wine should have a place in a civilised newspaper.

23.50: membership of Save the wine column has reached 297.
11.2.10: 12.30 – membership has reached 370. 

Several interesting posts about wine writing and critics here on Oliver Styles' blog (wine-life news review), which I have just discovered. Oliver used to be at Decanter and now looks to be based in Zamora, Spain and making wine.
