This week: The Wine in London Issue

As we went to press with this issue of Time Out, Ken Livingstone was still Mayor of London. You may well know differently by the time you read this. Whatever the outcome, the May 1 result will affect all of us living in the capital – but London life will roll on regardless: dirty, loud, joyous, dangerous, irresistible and, quite often, ever so slightly tipsy. Neither of the buggers can deny us that. Whether you’re drowning your sorrows or knocking them back in celebration, our wine special is here to help you. It’s a bacchanalian Big Smoke adventure, with our Wine Professor, Richard Erlich, leading both beginners and buffs on a quintessential quaffing tour. You’ll find the Time Out cellar crammed with beautiful bottles: riotous reds, wicked whites, shockingly good sherries and Champagne to make your taste buds shudder and shake with pleasure. Delay no more. Uncork this issue and pour yourself a large one. Bottoms up Boris! Here’s mud in your eye Ken!
