I’m Tatiana, also known as The Little Grape, and I’ve worked in the wine trade for over a decade. My journey began with a harvest at Domaine Jones in France’s Languedoc Roussillon region; picking grapes and checking the vats is how I fell in love with winemaking.

I’ve since worked at Berry Bros. & Rudd and Bordeaux Index, curating private wine collections and hosting tastings and events, which ignited my interest in sharing wine knowledge with others. Now I write a fortnightly newsletter, shared with over 1,000 readers, which explores wine from every possible angle.

Along the way, I completed the WSET Diploma, earning a prize for my final exam, but taking the WSET courses made me realise there had to be another way to learn about wine in a less fusty and formulaic format. That realisation shaped how I teach today.

My method makes wine approachable and practical, focusing on real-world experiences and everyday choices. I have distilled ten years of wine experience into what you actually need to know.

My mission in a glass is to simplify wine and inspire confidence.
