Brett in the Loire
We were very sorry and saddened to learn this evening that Brett Jones – the Wine Maestro – and Wink Lorch's partner died this morning losing his brave and courageous fight against prostrate cancer.
One of our strongest memories was his performance back in September 2009 on the 4th plinth in Trafalgar Square highlighting the dangers of prostate cancer, which included, of course, a wine tasting. Brett had been treated and was in remission.

Here is the last post on the Wine Maestro blog.
A sad day – you will be sorely missed, Brett. Our thoughts are with Wink and Brett's family.
so many fond memories of traveling and tasting with him. What a wonderful, gentle and thoughtful man. I'll raise a glass of Nebbiolo to him tonight.
