 David Andrews, DipWSET

David brings great enthusiasm to the wine industry, having left St Andrews university in 2019 and unsure quite where the job market would lead him, he began part time work in a small independent brewery, aptly named Titsey, where it was just him and the owner brewing small batch beer. David then joined Majestic Wine as a trainee manager in Shepherds Bush, moving through the store ranks to head office and now joining us at Winesdirect in 2023. He has completed his WSET Diploma qualification and looking forward to share his expert knowledge and tidbits of the wine world.

As well as being highly knowledgeable on the wine industry, David also loves to deconstruct a wine’s profile and create in depth tasting notes. You’ll find a few breakdowns on our website as well as on his Instagram: @oinosattheoikos

David is a big advocate of adventurous wines and exploring all there is to offer. He rarely buys the same wine twice and is often attracted to obscure grapes from lesser-known regions.

Rex Mundi Wines: World ending or world changing?
Rex Mundi are wines as striking as their label. The flagship is a blend of Shiraz and Grenache from the Languedoc-Roussillon, where the Mediterranean climate is extremely favourable for wine production. Rex Mundi is not, as you might expect, yet another Hollywood celebrity, but Latin for ‘King of the World’. This stems from the Cathar religion, which began in this region of France during the 12th and 14th centuries. This fabled King was in fact some form of Satan who created all matter, thus…

Champagne Tour: Bollinger and Hautvillers - Part 5
Part 5 returns after the holiday rush, making now an ideal time to revisit my Champagne trip from last May. If you’re planning a summer getaway, I recommend this trip — check out my earlier blogs to get an idea of various other houses I visited as well as some general tips on Reims and Epernay. Continuing the tour, this was to be our very first day where we only visited one Champagne house (terrible I know), before having a bit more free time to explore the region around Epernay. However, it was…

Wine52 Case Review: Food & Wine of Italy
This month, in celebration of all things Christmas, Wine52 are giving away a FREE case of wine to all new customers, themed around Italian wine and food pairings. This is an intrinsic part of Italian culture with each region, each city and each tiny mountain town having their very own dish, and of course wine, that are matches made in heaven. There’s a reason that pairing food with wine from the same place works so well. The historical growth of both food and wine have grown culturally together…
