Welcome to Winefriend
Welcome to Winefriend, a website devoted to the wines of Piemonte, Italy and beyond. I’m David Way, wine writer and educator based in London and Hampshire in the UK. The following pages are my thoughts, experiences, and learnings as I’ve travelled far and wide to explore the world of wine to its fullest.
I’d love you to join me on my journey through these wonderful countries and regions and share my enjoyment of their fabulous wines. My current focus is Piemonte but this website covers many regions around the world.
It has been an exciting year:
- My book, The Wines of Piemonte, was honoured by the International Organisation of Vine and Wine. You can buy the book here.
- I have written detailed profiles of 25 Nebbiolo producers for Nebbia e Luce.
- Decanter magazine published my article on white wine in Piemonte.
- I am the wine guide for Wine Scholar Guild’s Piemonte tour.

Back in Hampshire Janet and I run a friendly wine group which explores the world of wine: famous and less well-known regions, wine styles, grape varieties and more. We typically have one tasting each month, all at a reasonable price. You can see the current programme here. Newcomers are always welcome. If you are interested email me
