Food + Wine + Music + Art.
I believe NOBLE ROT is putting out some of the best and most playful lit in the wine world today. The magazine is not only full of great stories, interviews and opinions but one that incorporates the tongue in cheek mentality we believe so important to the world of food and wine. We are proud to support these visionaries.

NOBLE ROT ISSUE 34 // WINE JOURNAL
Regular price $19.00 Save $-19.00Issue 34 - ALPINE WINOS
Published 23rd of February 2024
In this issue...
It doesn’t take an ancient Greek philosopher to recognise that the more you learn about wine, the more you know you don’t know. This was recently reaffirmed to Noble Rot at a restaurant in Switzerland’s Valais, when presented with a gigantic carte des vins full of almost totally unrecognisable bottles. In our defence, the fact that the Swiss (quite rightfully) refuse to share their venerable vinos – exporting as little as 1% of their annual production – means that outsiders barely catch a glimpse of their world class Fendants, Syrahs and Petite Arvines. Yet traversing the winding roads around some spectacular mountainside vineyards both here, and in nearby Savoie days earlier, proved to us indisputably that Alpine masters like Marie-Thérèse Chappaz and Domaine des Ardoisières mean business. Read our profile of Swiss and French Alpine wines in Noble Rot 34.
Also in this issue…
…we have Keira Knightley reviewing an eclectic selection of wines, from Envínate’s 2021 ‘Doad’ Lousas (“It would be impossible to find a person who wouldn’t like this wine”) to Blossom Hill (“If this is the taste of summer, we are all fucked”)
…Marina O’Loughlin interviews British national treasure and comedy polymath Bill Bailey over lunch at Noble Rot Mayfair – not long after her review of Narbonne’s Les Grands Buffets, a plentiful ‘all you can eat’ restaurant featuring, among many other wonders, “towers of lobsters”, “acres of oysters” and “foie gras in ten different iterations”.
…Kate Spicer explores ‘Drunken Monkey Theory’ – aka the reason why, like our primate pal, loving wine is in our DNA – and profiles François Chartier, the Atomic Somm who uses molecular science to improve wine and food pairing.
Plus: Rush’s Geddy Lee tells us about becoming a wine geek; Joe Beef’s David McMillan recounts his Greatest Meal; Jay McInerney recounts the tempestuous story of the Mondavi dynasty, Californian wine’s first family; and Levi Dalton considers when is the right time to drink Barolo. We also feature Jon Bonné on Bernard Ginestet, Alice Feiring on coastal Tuscany and stories about Dolcetto, Succession, wine cancel culture, among others.

NOBLE ROT ISSUE 33 // WINE JOURNAL
Regular price $19.00 Save $-19.00Issue 33 - CAPTURING THE IMPOSSIBLE WINE
Published 27th of October 2023
In this issue...
Wine lovers have been swooning over Romanée-Conti for centuries. French Revolutionaries, struggling to realize the value of the vineyard without advertising its newly undesirable noble status, described it as “a balm for the elderly, the feeble and the disabled,” that will “restore life to the dying.” While Richard Olney, who wrote THE book on Romanée-Conti – the 2022 reprint of which was the reason Noble Rot was invited to a once-in-a-lifetime tasting of 25 vintages at Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – called it “a timeless perfection outside the realm of normal human experience”. Of course, there are ideological questions attached to anything that can only be afforded by princes, the 0.01%, or the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. But, as a wino, does that stop you wondering what it feels like to drink the world’s most fabled cru? It’s a tough job...
Also in this issue we...
...travel down under to profile a new generation making Australian wine, re-watch the best and worst films about wine, spotlight A/W23’s most on trend grapes, review winemaking computer game Hundred Days, and profile the Rhône’s mystical Château Grillet.
...have lunch with Jake Chapman – a.k.a the artist formerly known as Jake and Dinos Chapman. As synonymous with the late 1990s as New Labour, Oasis, Damien Hirst and the rest of the YBAs), the Chapman brothers created some of the most uncompromising art of our times. We hear about his career as a solo artist, from defacing royal autobiographies to making a new documentary about how capitalism and technology are hastening the demise of humanity, Accelerate or Die! (You Get the Dystopia You Deserve).
...hear about ex-Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman’s worst ever meal and John Niven’s annual trips visiting three-star restaurants in Spain and Italy, and discover what restaurants are good for ending romances.
Elsewhere, Marina O’Loughlin heads to Porto to marvel at its gastronomic delights (especially chef Nuno Mendes’s turnip and caviar pastel de nata), Keira Knightley writes about holiday heaven and hell, The Flavour Thesaurus’ author Niki Segnit highlights the famous ingredient matches that she can’t stand, Henry Harris celebrates learning how to cook at Leiths, and Alice Feiring sees how Georgia’s ancient wine traditions are moving with the times.

In this issue...
A well-worn wine-trade legend involves a venerable merchant being asked when they last mistook Bordeaux for Burgundy. “Not since lunchtime” is their answer. Loved by some and reviled by many, the often-ignominious art of blind tasting – AKA trying to identify a wine without seeing the label – comes under the spotlight in the new issue of Noble Rot.

Published 29th June 2021
Elsewhere in Noble Rot 26, we tour Iran to discover what remains of its 5,000-year-old wine culture, and profile both Maison Trimbach ‘Cuvée Frédéric Emile’, and one of the most mouth-watering trends of recent years: smoky wine. We also present Simon Hopkinson’s wine memoir, and feature recipes from April Bloomfield, Henry Harris and Rowley Leigh, as well as stories about Meursault soup, French wine myth, fibbing chefs’ menus, classic wine books, rap music’s obsession with restaurants, the wineification (is that even a word?) of cider, and a reappraisal of the much-maligned Champagne flute.
Like most of the male population of England I’ve never even picked up, let alone read, a Jilly Cooper novel, so it’s enlightening to discover what Daisy Buchanan says they taught her about restaurants in ’Lust for Lunch’ (spoiler: like Daisy’s recent bestselling novel Insatiable, it’s filthy). And talking of bestsellers, we’re honoured to welcome again the ever-brilliant Caitlin Moran, who tells us why the ’80s themed feast Heston Blumenthal cooked for her rates as her ’Greatest Ever Meal’ as well as fast-rising star of Millennial literature Megan Nolan, who writes about hangover meals.

NOBLE ROT ISSUE 24 // WINE JOURNAL
Regular price $19.00 Save $-19.00Issue 24 – WINE FROM ANOTHER GALAXY
Published November 2020
We’ve often thought a good book is a bit like a good restaurant: a cocoon in which you can escape the outside world. So, in this magazine issue, we celebrate our new, lockdown-proof getaway: Wine from Another Galaxy, the first-ever Noble Rot book. Written by Rot co-founders Dan and Mark, it charts the story of Noble Rot magazine and restaurants; covers themes such as how to order wine without fear, start your own cellar or talk about it without sounding like a bore; and celebrates our favourite bottles, and the dreamers that make them, in a ‘Rotter’s Road Trip’ across Europe.
Here, we dedicate issue 24 to celebrating its publication, enlisting some top vinonauts, including natural wine-oracle Alice Feiring and Beastie Boy Mike Diamond, to tell us about one of their own wines from another galaxy: a.k.a one that changed their perception forever.
On the subject of altered perceptions, this instalment’s special guest is former Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer – and food and wine lover – Ed Balls, who, having lost his seat in parliament in 2015, has undergone a remarkable reinvention: dancing Gangnam Style on Strictly, reviewing restaurants for The Sunday Times, and proving himself as an accomplished documentary maker with the superb Travels in Trumpland and Euroland. We meet him for one of our signature leisurely lunch interviews at Rotter HQ for the inside scoop on MP’s eating habits and his verdict on Trump Winery Chardonnay.
Elsewhere in this issue we profile Muscadet, Limoux and English wine (as well as reprising our famous 2015 English sparkling wine V Champagne tasting), Bursting Bubbles author Robert Walters questions some of the received wisdom on cellaring Champagne, Alastair Little tells us about his greatest ever meal, and Noble Rot Soho’s new Head Chef Alex Jackson gives us his recipe for plum and brown buttertart. Plus other recipes, stories and musings from Simon Hopkinson, Marina O’Loughlin, John Niven, Jake Missing, Jon Bonné, Rowley Leigh, Tim Hayward, Eileen Twum and George Reynolds.
