The British wine critic Stuart Pigott, who lives in Eppstein in the Taunus Mountains, will stop working as a taster and editor for the online magazine of the US wine expert James Suckling on 1 March 2019 and instead will strengthen the PR of the VDP winery Gut Hermannsberg an der Nahe as "Riesling Ambassador". In doing so, he wants to present its wines and use his international network as well as his text work for this purpose. Pigott has worked and tasted for jamessuckling.com for two and a half years.
Pigott explained on his website that in the future he wants to "no longer evaluate wines according to numerical systems". Instead, he would "work up the multifaceted history of wine" in a narrative form. However, he also wants to remain active as a wine journalist.
