Meet our wine expert; Angela Mount, probably most famous for having her taste buds insured for £10million when she was head of the wine buying team at Somerfield supermarkets, Angela has a refreshingly down to earth and no-nonsense approach to wine and is passionate about trying to help wine drinkers discover a little more about wine, and debunk a lot of myths! 

Angela is a busy working mum of 3, so she understands how it can be difficult, daunting and time consuming trying to select a wine. She provides simple guidance, lots of useful tips, and aims to help you discover wine in a non-stuffy way!

 "Choosing and enjoying wine should be fun!" she says, "...but so many people are either confused or put off by a sea of bottles that they just don't understand. My job is to make buying great wine a little more simple and hassle-free."

Angela has worked with top producers all over the world, selecting and blending wines, and judges at all the major wine competitions, including Decanter and International Wine Challenge.

She is a frequent presenter on radio and at live food and wine shows and has become known for her knack of pairing just the right wine with the right food, having worked alongside top celebrity chefs such as Gordon Ramsay and James Martin at events such as the Good Food Show.

"I know that lots of wine drinkers look for wines they know and trust. I've selected all the wines for yourfavouritewines.com, including many of the best-known wines in the world, to provide a selection to suit all tastes and budgets

Angela's view is that many of us want to know what wine to serve when we are entertaining, cooking, or just relaxing, so her focus is on giving tips and hints about which wines suit different occasions and styles of food.  

"Wine is to be enjoyed and appreciated...you don't need to overcomplicate it, just follow a few simple guidelines, take the risk and explore something new, and most important of all... ENJOY!'
