Vino Masters goes to Korea! 🇰🇷🍷

Vino Masters Goes to Korea! 🇰🇷🍷

I'll be away from the tasting bench from Monday 2 November 2026, travelling to South Korea on wine business.

I'll be back behind the tasting bench w/c Monday 9 November.

In the meantime, Russ will be undertaking some serious research into Korean cuisine, with a particular focus on:

  • Guk, Tang & Jjigae: Warming soups and stews, including ox-bone soup!?

  • Kimchi & Banchan: Fermented vegetables and traditional Korean side dishes.

  • Bibimbap: Rice, vegetables, meat, egg and a generous kick of chilli.

  • Bulgogi & Galbi: marinated beef and grilled short ribs.

  • Korean Fried Chicken: Crispy, crunchy and possibly addictive!

Hopefully, the palate survives the chilli, the chopsticks behave, and the Korean hospitality lives up to its reputation!

Vino Masters Score for Korea: ??/100 ★★★★★

Extensive tasting required before a final score can be awarded!

Cheers,

Russ
