Porto Named Europe's Friendliest City by Condé Nast Traveller in 2026
Porto has been named the friendliest city in Europe in the 2026 Condé Nast Traveller Readers' Choice Awards. Worldwide, only Melbourne in Australia ranks higher. Seoul, in South Korea, completes the podium, and Lisbon follows closely in fourth place. For travelers planning a trip to northern Portugal, it is a welcome confirmation of something visitors have been saying for years.

🎧Ep 278 – Oceanic Wine: Can You Taste the Sea? with Chris Howard
In this episode of Eat Sleep Wine Repeat, Janina dives into the fascinating and potentially controversial idea of Oceanic Wine with wine writer, judge and educator Chris Howard. Chris has proposed that oceanic wine should be considered a category in its own right, exploring what happens when the sea becomes one of the dominant forces shaping a vineyard and the wine in your glass. But what actually makes a wine oceanic rather than simply coastal? Chris explains why proximity alone isn't enough, and how wind, fog, salt, temperature, exposure and geography can all influence vineyards in very different ways. From California's Sonoma Coast and coastal Chile to Tasmania, Margaret River, South Africa and New Zealand, this episode explores Wine Regions where the ocean may play a defining role. The conversation also asks one of the most intriguing questions in Wine Education: when tasters describe salinity, iodine, oyster shell or sea spray, are we genuinely tasting the ocean? Chris introduces

Telling a mountain to move
The Montsant Massif is a striking mountain range full of grey cliffs and sits at the northern point of Priorat Country in Catalunya, Spain. Meaning, “the holy mountain”, it’s inspirational in sheer, natural awe and it makes for no surprise as to why the Denomination of Origin Montsant made use of its name when created in 2001. Despite this well-crafted name and image which has brought local recognition, I personally haven’t heard anyone say, “Make mine a Montsant” when ordering a wine in London or San Francisco though. I mention […] For full access, please log in or purchase a subscription.
