Style note — Arts & Crafts was a major international movement in design. It started in Victorian Britain in the 1860s, and came as a reaction to the industrialisation and mass production. It was about simple and functional, high quality and skilfully produced homewares and furniture, using simple natural materials.
Facts of Lavish Wine tip — Barolo, Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Malbec, Chianti, Rhône wines and Ports — all these wines usually can benefit from decanting, because they have pretty heavy bodies.
