Wine & Spirit is a British monthly magazine on wine, spirits, beers and cocktails, directed at both consumers and the drinks industry. The magazine also organises the annual "International Wine Challenge" and "International Spirits Challenge", and publishes the annual results book, the World's Best Wines Guide.
Wine & Spirit is viewed as a competitor of Decanter, described by Jancis Robinson as "Britain's second consumer wine magazine", though livelier.[2]
The magazine was previously the consumer oriented publication published by Wilmington plc as Wine International.[1] Along with the purchase of trade magazines Drinks International and Wine & Spirit International in 2005, William Reed Publishing launched the amalgamated magazine Wine & Spirit in February 2006.[3][4]
