The magazine, published in about 90 countries on a monthly basis, includes industry news, vintage guides and wine and spirits recommendations.
History and profile
[edit]Following the success of wine columns in British newspapers, the Decanter magazine was founded in London in 1975.[2][3] Decanter is the oldest consumer wine publication in the United Kingdom.[4] According to author Evelyne Resnick, it has a comparable function in the UK as the Wine Spectator has in the United States.[2] As of 2011, it was published in 91 countries, including China.[3] Columnists and regular contributors include several Masters of Wine.[3]
The magazine focuses mainly on wines available in the United Kingdom, as well as the United States. While it is aimed at consumers, a significant part of the magazine's audience consists both of traders and producers.[2][5] Its contents include news, topical commentary, travel surveys, interviews, analysis and market reports.[3] Unlike other magazines, which focus on many wines from various regions and countries, Decanter issues offer in-depth reviews of wines from two regions at a time.[3] The readers of Decanter are generally younger than the readers of similar publications, with 41% of readers under 45 years of age.[2]
Decanter launched its website, Decanter.com, in 1999. The website is one of the largest globally,[6] based on traffic figures. In 2017 it launched a subscription service called Decanter Premium.[2]
