Wine writer, importer and restaurateur Dan Keeling discusses his new book Pick Your Bottles: 100 Wines to Change the Way You Drink with novelist John Niven at Foyles. The conversation explores Keeling's philosophy of discovering exceptional wines from lesser-known producers—most under £50—paired with food, travel and the stories behind them. Noble Rot magazine, which Keeling co-founded, has become a major voice in modern wine culture, expanding from a publication to acclaimed London restaurants known for making wine accessible and enjoyable.
Keeling and Niven share a history in the music industry before their paths diverged into wine and literature respectively, so expect the discussion to range across wine discovery, wine lists that have won major awards, and their shared experiences in the entertainment business. The event includes a tasting of wines featured in the book, followed by audience questions and book signing.
