What's a "Tarragona" & the Instagram Wine Scam

Year 11, No. 05

Greetings,

"Movement"

This word has never sounded so sweet because here in Spain, they lifted the State of Emergency a few days ago as well as the curfew and regional confinements. There's still a pandemic very much raging about, but we are indeed now free to carefully move about the country.

Due to our being fully locked down for so long it allowed me to create yet another in-depth regional report, in this case on DO Tarragona which is now live on the site. This is a region just next door to me in Priorat, yet was always something of an enigma due to its multifaceted nature and I don't think I'm the only one in this camp. There are some good wines there despite the fact it's a complex region to understand.

Unfortunately it's clear that the nefarious amongst us know we're spending a great deal more time on social networks these days and I need to warn you about a scam on Instagram targeted at wine people that's been popping up as of late.

Take care with that, stay in touch, and stay safe a…
