, black ownership is critical. “The industry needs new voices in wine, a new approach. If you’re speaking as a black person about other brands, you won’t be heard.” Not that it’s necessarily easy as a brand owner. “Getting into distribution, getting into retail, that’s where most black-owned wineries are struggling, but I’m getting seven or eight messages a day, so I know there’s a market there.”
I actually made a donation to you guys recently as a thank you for articles I've read, and to reward me you print shit like this . . .
Wine is a terrible drink, let alone how racist red wine is towards Native Americans.
Really dumb story. Anyone who thinks this is an issue is also really dumb.
this time you finde a new job.
I have no idea what the problem is but I am OUTRAGED!
BlackWineMatters
Okey? Let's take this slow this time.
Having worked with wine for many years I can tell you that 9/10 black customers come into the store looking for “tella port” (taylor port) or sweet wine. Also all the shoplifters that have been caught were black.
The Guardian sinks to even new lows! People enjoy the taste, no one gives a fig about the colour of the person making it...
I’m A jOuRnALiSt aNd I wriTEd aboUt rAciSt WiNe
What a shocking article. Stirring more racist division. Activists posing as journalists. “Journalism” is fast becoming the catalyst for civil war! You are stoking racism and race hatred.
KwaggaBoucher
Wow! I grew up as a person of colour in the South African wine region, and wine was very much a part of our culture. I hate these ridiculous type of articles trying to stir racial tension.
Only white wine is racist.
winematcher - Fiona, WTF is this article? I’ve never heard anything so ridiculous, stating that black people need to ‘work’ to get into the industry, well yeah! So does everyone else. Shame on you for this piece of shit article.
'It's time *rolls dice on industry chart* stopped *rolls dice on grievance chart* white people.'
BLM is a Whine Industry.
leave it to the to write the stupidest articles
🤣🤣🤣
May I just remind people that in South Africa the minority are the white people. (About 5 million white people and 60 million non white).In America the black population is the minority. So are the minorities suppose to be supported or the majorities? Take a pic and stick to it
How about the entire Guardian staff show solidarity by giving their jobs to minorities? Upper middle class Karen’s lecturing the rest of us about privilege and racism - pathetic.
Fiona Beckett wastes her life away writing clap trap drivel that nobody in their right mind cares about.
I’ve seen plenty of black people drinking wine in the street. Fairly popular. Black women love a goon bag when they are pregnant.
Life is so good we're now desperately inventing reasons why wine is racist. auspol
Called it
Just stop
Wtf!!! Can’t even drink a bottle of wine without being a racist now!!!
Articles like this utter drivel are the exact reason you’ve got faux paywalls popping up, and paragraphs about the place begging for donations. I pray you keep this blatantly divisive shite up so you’ll all be redundant in the not too distant future. Proper gutter fodder.
Please tell me this is a parody account 🙈
So messed up! Get therapy.
Hahaha
white wine is more racist than red wine, however.
The level of stupidity you can sink to amazes everyone! Never seen a publishing outlet with this lack of brain cell capacity!!!
What?!!!
grauniadmeme They’re stealing your content! 🤣
First you came for our VHS copies of Thomas the Tank Engine. Then our barbecues.. then our ketchup! All of which you claimed were racist. But not this.. NOT THIS! 🤡🤮🤡🤮🤮🤡🤮🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Is that just white wine or all wines? 😂 The Guardian is for the clinically insane 🤣
Level 9000 stupidity!
Well, you learn something new every day. I didn't know black people aren't allowed to buy wine.🤔
And at the bottom of the article: 'Since you're here ... ... we have a small favour to ask. Millions are flocking to the Guardian for quality news every day.' 🤣
Why is Fiona becket making bigotted remarks such as black and coloured people either don’t drink wine or drink any old plonk?
The Guardian's ability to consistantly produce such god awful content is actually pretty impressive.
Why is this paper still publishing? Wasn’t it founded by a slave owner? Or the founder had links to the slave trade?
All very cosy but how about the guardian provides people with the capital to get into the industry. That is the barrier not colour and western liberal guilt
This report could not be more useless and stupid.
Craft beer in the US must also be racist since it exists here because a Republican president, Reagan, deregulated brewing and even made gone brewing beer legal. Anyone who buys anything but Big Corp Beer must be called out as a racist. If they are a democrat, add hypocrite.
Pardon
Just so you know.....I took my £1 sponsorship for your toilet paper of a rag and threw down a drain. The end is nigh for scum media.....Your readership is dropping daily. Bye!
My red wine predilection is racist then!
WTF?
I think it is very telling that the guardian do not have a paywall. It's not that they are being kind, they would lose all the as revenue if they used a wall as no-one would actually pay for this drivel
I couldn't give a stuff who made my wine. If a black producer made it, then cheers to him or her. If it was a white person, likewise.
Parody account
It’s only days until the markings on a badger and level crossings are measured for equality.
Please delete your newspaper
FFS! You people are divisive wackadoodles.
I did some dumb things in my youth, but nothing so serious I would have to change my name. The author of this piece however...
Eh!?
Knetterleip
IS THIS REAL LIFE?
Claptrap.
Brilliant. Here's The Guardian continuing it's long running series on 'why everything you like is racist', while completely coincidentally selling fewer & fewer papers. The self-loathing middle classes must be a shrinking demographic. OffGuardian0
Because blacks prefer not to drink wine that is some how the white mans fault? seems to me all your doing is pushing white culture onto blacks, Are you trying to make black people more white?
Tremendous irony from a white publication, produced exclusively for a white middle class audience.
What do black people drink?
I can't believe someone got paid to write this shit. Unbelievable
🤣🤣 racist wine. Really? Does anyone actually buy this piece of shit paper
Usual shit from that pathetic rag
Oh ffs ,when's the guardian going out of business, soon please 🙏
I always thought wine was a big thing in the black community... Well, grape soda anyway... Sorta the same thing.
I see you have outdone the grauniadmeme again. Drinks all round!
Why did you publish this?
What has this reporter been drinking, and how much?
'Insert name here' is racist
Truly sad that the Guardian goes down the woke drain, by publishing such idiocy. Now enjoying wine with a meal is racist? Or the wine is racist? C'mon, time to cut such crap. Get back to real writing and journalism or change profession.
MadDog2020 is wine!
Yawn. Change the record
Twats
Ffs
Shame the Hawksmoor Restaurant Group a Beckett family related chain doesn't capitulate to this nonsense. No not a mention anywhere - a focus on capitalism, quality & now covid closures & job loss. Fiona you're way out of line with this click bait!
The “white” people in the UK aren’t really white are they? We’re a pale-ish pinky light browny sort of colour.
I would think this was parody except its The Guardian. No wonder they have lost all their readers. Fiona Beckett needs putting in an asylum.
Racist wine ffs
I have to buy the Groaniad for my wife, the newsagent always asks me if I want to take it home in a brown paper bag to save embarrassment. I always say yes. This article is an example of the reason why.
🤦♂️
Another article linking skin colour to racism. Divisive, race baiting bollocks which has become as per with the Guardian. Just ignore them, a bunch of jokers who normal, fair minded people allow them to blow off their hatred.
Thank you for more divisiveness. MediaVirus EverythingIsRacist
What garbage... The world identifies wine as white!! What do the numpties want to call it ..... Yellow? Not White? Not Black? Or shall we remove the colour white from the dictionary or perhaps the reverse..remove the colour black Ridiculous virtue signalling. 😝
How about just banning the words white and black. Problem solved.
This 👇 DontDivideUsNow
Racist wine.
Wankers..😞
Christ on a bike... what next?
next week they will claim gloves are racist...
Peak Grauniad! What a hideous paper... with a hideous past too. Cheers
Testicles!
Sick to death of hearing the comment black lifes matter that's and this is racism we been sending your black countries millions since the 60s to improve your countries this is a country of many colours who live in harmony ,I work and live with many colours in harmony
Dumb
Pathetic.
Do these guys realise how racist they sound? Stop it!
No wonder your sales are collapsing
You’re no more than a crap Comic!!!
😂😂😂😂
Any woke calls to ban White Wine yet ?
Says The Guardian: that bastion of diversity...
Rominic_Daab Ollie_Holt1
Whites have wine - blacks have kool-aid
🤣🤣
About as ridiculous as saying, ‘It’s time the Soy sauce industry stopped taking safe stances to keep its primarily Chinese audience comfortable’ Headlines like this is why traditional media is dying.
This is right up there with the dumbest articles ever written.
FFS The wine industry make wine. For people to buy and then, you know, drink. That’s it. There is no racist intent in producing wine. F*cking Guardian. Honestly...
I agree. All wine brewers should come out as solidly anti-BLM and anti-communist. They should stand for what's right, not for what makes their WHITE, UPPER-CLASS FEMALE customer base happy politically.
Do these people spend all day making things up to complain about
not__vee Wine producers, like everybody else whose product isn't politics, should not inject politics into their products. How is alienating half your consumers going to help you? Also remember vegan-communists only spend other people's money.
Says the Guardian whose foundations were built on slavery and no doubt pre BLM drank gallons of wine from white owned vineyards. GuardianHypocrites🤪🇬🇧🇬🇧
Ever heard of supply and demand. Looking at your circulation figures I guess the answer is no.
STOP WHINING
Cope.
You people in the first world just love to keep creating first world problems, don't you? What a privileged bubble you idiots live in.
Black couple at restaurant: “Da bitch will have yo finest screw top wine.”
not__vee Every woke person in an industry, right now: now we can compel change! Everyone else: time to wear the right mask to avoid getting mobbed into receivership.
This nonsense is never ending.
NotAllWines
How moronic
Only appropriate reply for this crap
WTF are you on about
winematcher 🙈🙈 stay off the vino when thinking up articles to write.
pleas stop
“The fact that you as a white woman can enjoy a glass of moscato without a thought versus me as a black woman automatically being labelled ghetto'. Well.. I guess life can be tough. I'm so sorry you have to go through this pain
Morons....
Maybe the Guardian should stop taking its safe stance of demonising white people.
Looks like a guardian writer, squawks like a guardian writer...
Stop trying to cope for the fact that you feel left out because white people do awesome shit.
It seems the Court of Master Sommeliers hasn't a clue what 'Master' in this context means. The Guardian didn't pick up on this, which is not really surprising as it seems to employ only race-baiting hacks.
When is everyone going to wake up to the fact that the media is shoving this horse shit down everyone's throats to divide us so we can't come together to oppose the coming 'austerity measures' that are going to fuck everyone. Fallout from 2008 probably won't compare.
Will you just look at the absolute state of what was once a respectable newspaper.
Sorry, this goes too far now. Don’t start throwing cards into the world of wine. Won’t even start on the history but it’s a bastion and passion for the everyday as well as the elite, as much as bread is. Cock off and write something meaningful you privileged painter of diction
It’s time the media stops injecting race into everything to make their “woke” audiences feel virtuous when in reality they just annoying af to everybody
This is the kind of article that should precede retirement
It's time people stopped reading The Guardian. Fiona Beckett should write something a bit more worth reading. This newspaper is worth nothing more than chip paper.
lol I have family in Italy, people in Tuscany where the best wine is made don't give a crap about your identity politics. Grow up.
Make your primary customer base uncomfortable. That’s a winning formula 😂
This article could literally only ever exist in the Guardian. Beyond parody...
RACIST tweet!
Oh ferk of guardian
The premise seems relevant to SA but how does this connect here in Aust? Does anyone actually think about the winemaker when they buy or drink wine? I don’t, and I’m not sure I need to. Where’s the need?
Lol.
Everything is racist!
Let me guess, you’ll be promoting Pinot Noir as the only safe wine for us to enjoy🙄
you really are a bunch of toss pots aren't you? 😂
The Guardian won’t be happy until we ask period or piss rather than red or white when offering a glass.
What does that headline even mean?
Red wine is racist against native Americans - Guardian on Monday.
Seeing racism even in wine growing now? If there's a market profit motivated owners will service it.
If the rag relied on advertisements it would’ve gone bust a long time ago. Hopeless rag.
🙄
I've always found Pinot Noir to be a very offensively named wine. Pinot de coleur is a much less racist term.
White people wake up . You're hated . Stop saying race sont matter , it does . You cant see that by now ? You guys are in big trouble.
Eh?
The Court of The Master Sommeliers already caved. They will no longer use the word master.
Gimme a break! No wonder people don't buy newspapers anymore.
So “white” wine is racist what about “black” tea, “black” coffee or even brown sugar ...Does this work ALL ways or is it to be for any colour that’s not classed as “black” eg red, pink, brown, yellow... just how far does this go I’m genuinely curious & don’t like “black” milk🥛
I wonder if a few nice black brothers would step aside and let some white brothers have there jobs? It takes 30-40yrs before a generation dies off Change will take time but why get rid of good people as that's just reverse reverse racism
There are more than 4,000 grape varietals and tens of thousands of combinations of blends. Millions of wine SKU. There’s a wine for everyone at every price point - 2£ to 20,000£ a bottle. is looking for racism in a vacuum. Shame on you for being so disingenuous.
Did I read that right? She quoted two wines at over £30 a bottle!
The beer industry must confront systematic racism, starting with Pale Ale which itself is a racist category name because it elevates pale skinned people at the expense of BAME publics
That’s it. I still buy The Guardian and The Observer at weekends. But I’m done with it now.
Do you hear yourselves?
As a white person I’ve always felt pretty uncomfortable in the red wine section.
What is this shxt?
I get it, they don't want a black person telling them a certain wine is better than another.. Because what do black people know.
Here's your general guide to see if you're racist. It's tough but start at the top and just accept the inevitable conclusion UK version should have- 'lives in countryside' but that can come under Moves Out
You people are weird as fukc

We need to remove white keys from the piano if civilisation is to have any chance - The Guardian's next article
Oh piss off.
Bollocks..get a life..
winematcher Do you people actually get paid to write this sort of divisive garbage? There is no justification for this your simply trying to dictate your views instead of providing information, do you still use crayons?
It's been such a long time since these were last used but here goes... DAMN WHITE PEOPLE AND THEIR...*shuffles deck, draws card*….WINE!
Odin’s balls can’t you lot talk about anything else?
It will be oxygen soon. The periodic table is a white construct and therefore all elements are racist. If you breathe you only prove your racism to the world! Are you breathing?!! Racist!!
Really!! Wine is now racist 😅. People need to get back to normal please 😔🙂
Mate, wine is the least of our worries; if at all.
Shit. Now wine is racist
Shut up ffs
Wine is now racist, I assume next week it will be green tea?
racial agitator .. what are you doing?
talk about dredging the bottom of the wine barrel...
Jesus the world is going mad
S. H. U. T. U. P.
National Parks are also apparently embarrassed of their whiteness.
You think people of color don't drink wine? What are you smoking?
Garbage
Eh ...
This happens when people have no problems in life.
They'll turn on run next.
I’m guessing that the plummeting readership figures mean you are struggling to find genuine news. This article smacks of you introducing racism in to feed your remaining readers.
Make red wine Amerindian again
Leftists like Fiona Beckett winewatcher & want to create division. The left need to find victims to stay relevant hence this type of nonsense. It's so dangerous & counter productive but they don't care. It's about making themselves feel good, the priviliged liberals.
Fiona have a look at cheese not one black one, how racist's is that. Ffs
Oh my fucking God🤣🤣🤣 Probably easier to just say what isn't racist. Wait, nothing is not racist. Right!
Gotta love the Guanodian. I can't tell the real thing from the parodies anymore.
I couldn't agree more! They need to start telling white people how much they love them in order to retain their business. Great, if slight unexpected catch!
🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
Who the hell do you think you are ?!!!!!
Slavery in Sudan, 5 million people displaced in the Congo... Guardian wonders whether wine is racist. Get your priorities straight. stoptheracewar
OK this hits home. I own liquor stores. I've been in the industry since 1976. How in the fuck is wine racist? Nothing about wine is gendered or race targeted at all. Not the first thing.
The Guardian, aka the magic 8 ball of shite.
It's time BLM takes a good look at the Guardian and a it's involvement with the slave trade,something not quite right here, BLM so involved in destroying anything to do with the slave trade,and for some unknown reason they've left your paper alone.
'Do that pose you did when you were pretending to work in a science lab..'
Smells of bullshit. Not your damn business. Not your decision.
That’s it folks two competitors. We have the BBC in the red corner with Racist Countryside and in the Blue corner we have Guardian with Racist wine. Who will triumph for the ‘Woke Morons who have absolutely no credibility left with normal people awards 2020’ 🤔 Ding! Ding!
Seriously, just shut up.
Poppycock.
Oh just STFU already. Everyone is over the cancel culture BS
I get it - nobody buys your shit paper any more so you've turned into a satirical publication. Brilliant! 👏
I expect the Guardian will start moaning when they can't get their middle class lefty tipple of choice... Prosecco?
🤡🌏
WTF? Just when you think can’t get anymore more ridiculous, they lower the bar even further. GutterRag
Dafuq you smoking?
Is Fiona Beckett actually paid to write this stuff? It really boggles the mind 🤔
Hold on to your hats. I am aboit to floor you all. Fiona Beckett is as white as if she were from a Viking time capsule. Another cracker trying to intermediate the experience of others. Sit down Karen.
Ah, South Africa - the country famous for the rampant high crime of Farming While White.
Black grapes are used in wines but even then the wine is still called red. Racism! Must be being done to keep whites feeling more comfortable.
,ShaniquaLives have you slipped in one of your articles as a laugh under a pseudonym
Stop wine-ing about racial BS.
When I saw a screenshot of this headline, I thought it was a parody, but it's actually a real article 😬
Everything is racist nowadays.
click bait trash
Unless it’s Night Train
I was about to comment on how masculine Fiona Beckett of news looks, but it turns out I don't need to. The absolute state of the whitest looking woman I have ever seen writing this while using a photo of a token black person to drive her point home. RACISM!!
You were the quiet kid in school, weren't you?
What the hell is he doing stealing grapes
The world’s gone mad. Absolutely bonkers! 🤣
Stop shouting at wine!
andrewdoyle_com
You lot have lost the plot.
If wine isn't racist, why is it called WHITE wine? I rest my case. - The Guardian, 2020, probably
Yes, as we all know white people need to be miserable and tense at all times or else you're not doing your job as a good ally.
The Guardian prints on white news, that must make the Guardian racist!!! 😂 A few years ago the whole Guardian crew would have been taken away by big guys in white coats. They really are crazy.
Lmao so far reaching it's actually comedy now.
I do hate this rag of a paper.
Sigh
Wine is racist.
Good!! Now everyone can have a splitting headache the morning after a night of wine drinking.
“It’s time to start reviewing purp drank”.
The Guardian are a joke of a newspaper.
Wine is racist! White wine in particular! Decolonise! Deplatform! Deconstruct!
Charlotte's Web is really about White Supremacist loaded with Swastikas! Just like Animal Farm is not really about animals... You can find more hidden Nazism in the children's classic Charlotte's Web in this 36-page SSRN paper:
Way to fuel racial tension for your pay packet Fiona Beckett. Pathetic
Fiona Beckett you are a fool.
FFS. Don’t you lot ever wonder why you’re going under? I mean, just have a think about why your circulation is going massively down.
I can't believe this pathetic paper has readers...
Guardian, please start thinking of the United Kingdom and fight for it. Stop this woke BLM nonsense. Black lives do matter, but not the trash served up by the BLM activist garbage. Fight for a UNITED Kingdom, end the hateful division.
Do you have a dartboard with a load of random words on it and every day you throw a dart at the board and whatever it hits, that's the new thing that's racist.
karlfischer_biz I will be drinking the odd bit of rose wine. Tired of your foolishness. So....suck me.
What utter and complete nonsense. hopefully the Guardian will run out of funds soon and cancel itself.
I actually stole myself to read your article. You should be ashamed of yourself...please don’t comment on things that you clearly have no grasp of ( and I can 100% assure you I have not a racist bone in my body), people like you incite the whole thing.
More race-baiting from the leftwaffe oily rag. Only you could make this garbage up. Can’t wait for you to fold. Would pay to see it happen.
Twats the lot of you ...
FFS - Fiona I worked in South Africa for ten years in a high profile wine Estate. You know nothing, another pathetic woke hack. I really give up.
The guardian has pressed the button on the jargonater to generate another story. Random word:wine. Random outrage: racist. 🤪
Now I know The Guardian has finally lost the plot. Even their most avid readers must have more sense than this ridiculous article.
I better stop drinking wine and go back to black currant juice
There I was, tucking into my Californian Pinot, thinking all was relatively good for a Friday, but then you go and do that. You silly billies.
I'm offended by the since nonsense. What's next? Can't call my socks white or black?
Pathetic stupid comic
You are trying to create divisions in society, stop it.
Oh my god, you literally couldn’t make this bullshit up 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
The Grauniad has actually gone mad.
9 million followers, 50 retweets. That’s quite the impact you’re having.
Anything newsworthy about the plight of white South African farmers?
This is cultish bullshit that pushes a black supremacy narrative
Wine equality of outcome now? You idiots, which wines ppl drink and wholesalers stock has nothing whatsoever to do with race, it's soley based on consumer demand. If black wines can't make a dent in the market maybe it has something to do with the products themselves. Yes?
You're really losing the plot now coming out with ridiculous statements like that. Get a bloody grip.
Ban wine
This is getting stupid! defundtheguardian
FFS WTF
Oh just fuck right off.
You know who always talk about only race and burn their brain cells? NAZI's in past and Turkish racists(still). Black racism is one of the mainstream ideology not just in US anymore, even in white countries like UK. It is dangerous, it's not reverse, it's pure old school racism.
Bullshit
Wat
WatchRatio ...
I notice there’s a white wine, a red wine and a Rose ....sorry they don’t do black wine.
Removed the Guardian from my Google news feed. And now blocking you from here. Cannot stand your woke reporting any longer.
It's called white wine to compensate for all the black whining we have to endure
Why are you called The Guardian, you don't protect anything
Jew media back it again with hate against white people
No go back to Wakanda
03/07/20 Today's racism.... wine.
The lack of self awareness with this paper
Do they do a black wine ?
I used to rely on you for accurate reporting on the crimes of the Bush administration during the Iraq War debacle. Now....what the living breathing fresh hell is this? Wine is wine. Either you like drinking it or you don't. This is racism of 'low expectations'. Canceled.
Given that 'The Guardian' writes nothing but anti-white, anti-British hate propaganda these days, perhaps it's time they changed their name to something more suitable like 'The Traitor'?
What?
I always suspected wine was the official beverage of the KKK. Now, I know. Thank you so much for your amazing journalism, and informing me that wine is racist. I had no idea.
I like an occasional pint of Guinness 👀
From the newspaper originally started through slavery. You couldn't make it up
A nice bottle of MD 20-20 dindo nuffin
We at the Guardian beckon you to our vortex of perpetual outrage and race hustling, fanning the flames of fear. We keep you enraged and resentful, you keep us in business, it is our secret racket. We get to raise a toast to our moral virtue And people keep falling for it. LOL
You people are ridiculous.
Guardian it's not working darlin'. Move on, the rest of us did a long time ago.
FFS. Just, FFS.
It’s ok to be white
GavinNewsom owns a winery.
'..the Court of Master Sommeliers had finally abandoned the humiliating use of the term “master” when addressing its members' What BS! Now 'masterpiece' is regarded 'racist'? A 'Master of Business Admin' is a 'racist'? Idiots everywhere...
I suppose you never heard of “Night Train”
Wine is racist 👍🏻
I got half way though this article before deciding why am I wasting my time reading this tripe
Oh look, another day, another anti white clickbait piece from the Guardian.
One more reason why everyone hates liberals..keep em coming.
Oh my gosh ffs 🤯🤬
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I like red wine...does that mean anything? Y’all need to just stop giving the media attention. Ignore them. They post this stuff ONLY to increase ratings. Drama=$ to them. They don’t give a damn about anyone or anything except what affects their bottom line.
Yes, it's about time the wine industry starts to piss off their customer base.
Racist White Wine 🤡
😂😂😂😂 I don't really care who makes the wine I drink or even know it. And let's face it most of the wine in stores is grape juice mixed with sulfates and acidifier
Cancel wine
You need psychological support
How stupid is this ?
🙄😴
Give it a rest please
Wow, so woke now 😂😂😂😂
But how unnecessarily heavy you are! All this flamboyant fervor Is clear as the sun that hides shady interests.
On étaiz vigneronz
Maybe they could save time and just tell us what ISN'T racist. I imagine it's a fairly short list.
This is literally like drinking swastikas
Oh fuck right off
If race isn't a factor in your economic and social decisions, you're racist!
You’re just inelegant trolls...
🙄
Race Baiters.
Dumb people
What racist nonsense...
Who comes up with this shit?
😂
🙄🙄🙄wow
Is this from 'The Onion' or 'The Guardian' Does everyone on the race-baiting left literally trip over themselves with pathetic eagerness to find more and more ways to sow hatred and divide?
Mad Dog 20/20 life matters.
LOOOOL is she serious?
Who would've thought it? Let's cancel wine people! wineprivilege
I wish Germany had won the second world war
Wow... doesn't stop does it.
I don't drink wine. Not because I don't like the taste. But because it's nazi juice. And I'm better than you.
That asteroid is overdue. Mother nature should start over
I can't believe you're still in business.
Is Thunderbird wine?
Such wokeness. 👏
To save people giving them clicks the TL:DR is lots of race baiting whining about lack of black owned vineyards, ending with the good news that there are some but they all sell overpriced shite so she can't really recommend them. Brilliant.
People don't buy wine based on the skin colour of the winemaker. This is getting more insane by the minute
Fuck me...is wine racism now ?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wine is now racist, oh just when you thought things couldn't get anymore ridiculous!
The Polka world needs to appeal to Black people before it's too late.
Yep, and white men can jump too.
¿
STFU
For the love of God, just shut the hell up
Just sod off you absurd self-parodies.
I wonder what Iromg will make of this plankery.
I was thinking this morning 'I wonder what stupidity in the name of calling things racist will be?' Yup. Not disappointed.
“in South Africa, all people of colour are referred to as black”. Not a fact. SA girlfriend’s best friend is black, and she refers to herself as Cape Coloured. One of many inaccuracies. Also, wine isn’t racist, FFS 🙄
GOD DAMN WINE INDUSTRY!!!!!
The quality of wine is what's important.Of my wine & beer drinking friends, none that I am aware of, buy their drinks based on the color of the owners skin. Seems media is fixated on the color of ones skin.Showing small mindness, diviesiveness, etc. Your implications are pathetic
I’ve told my wife she’s a racist for drinking white wine whereas I am a totally innocent red wine guzzler. Does “red” upset anybody? Probably by next week!
The EU can consider itself lucky to be rid of the UK.
Hahaha!
Wow, lol. There is not a single comment in this thread supporting this story. What a rag.
You know what else is racist? Paper! It's white! Quick, do an article on this problematic thing.
Hey woke mob, White milk! Get enraged.
And for the to stop taking safe stances to keep kissing primarily blm ass
Oh, do one.
Black people are not prohibited from driving to a winery and drinking wine 🙄
Yes, they should alienate their customer base to satisfy a group that drinks mad dog 2020 and gin and juice.
journalism
Beckett is on drugs
🙄 the boredom of it all.
😂
The Guardian does more to further Conservative support than it does Labour, with its constant, nonsensical, woke bullsh it.
Wtf
Is it only me who doesn’t care who owns a vineyard? I buy wine because I like it, not because it is owned by a person from a certain race.
When is this revolting slop of a paper going to go under.
LMFAO Do you think there are people who will pay £39.50 for a bottle of wine because of the colour of the people who produce it?
I like how people have been stopped from attending funerals, been economically battered and probably developed lockdown mental health issues and this paper is knocking millions of them when they are down by frequently associating their skin colour with negativity. Compassion.
The wine industry does not appeal to drunkenness -- it appeals to wine as part of one's diet. Sometimes that fact may be misinterpreted in terms of the audiences that the industry addresses.
This article
All this time I had white wine privilege 😔 Its time I finally recognised that RedWineMatters
Go woke, go broke.
Black Tower
The Guardian only approves of red wine because of its communist leanings.
🤣🤣🤣
Guardian is racist instead of being what it means to protect or stand up for its pandering and telling poc that there so oppressed should be called The Master not guardian lmao
Let’s not overlook the age-ism displayed towards the grapes.
Going to have to add this line to the 21st century version of the poem: “Then they came for the Wine industry, and I did not speak out—Because I was not in the Wine industry.” JK! I’ll speak out, and cont to tell everyone how SHITTY your paper is!🤣🖕🏼

I’ve always thought that’s been the problem with the wine industry.... just too damn white. Fuck me how is this even a story.
Seeing as how there are ONLY 2 COLOURS of wine. APPARENTLY, ONE of them is RACIST the other isn't according to the article. Perhaps food_writer might like to explain? Are you deliberately trying to fuel racism via alcohol? That's a cunts trick love.
What an joke of a media outlet. Glad I don’t waste my money on you!
At a time when attacks on white farmers are on the increase in South Africa, either you are being deliberately insensitive or you have no interest in news. Victims tortured with electric drills, blowtorches, bleach & gang rape while you look for racism in wine is sick.
I’m left wing & even I think that this a stupid, pointless fucking article. It’s like Literally handing a loaded automatic mockery gun to the fascist right. Smash the fash, not pick an worthless argument where there isn’t one..
Do you have a mental disorder?
DefundTheGuardian Trying so desperately to contrive division where there is none is racist and irresponsible.
You people are literally on your arses as a publication. People are laughing at you now. Absolutely howling at the preposterousness of your output. 😂😂😂😂
Wine isnt woke? Wow. News we needed.
Scraping the very bottom of the shit rag barrel are we ? I think whoever wrote this and got it approved by the editors need all lining up and beaten with the shit rags they so erroneously depend on selling
Race baiting bull
Racist grapes
I guess this is why we have 'blind tastings!' Thanks for the idiotic, race baiting, intersectional headline Grauniad
Talk about a stretch...
This mental problem of yours is going too far
Now wines racist, this is on par with peta Who claimed Milk is white supremacy. Its not a contest ffs.....
Someone tell the malt liquor people to start including whites
FFS guardian go have a quiet talk to yourself in the corner!
cultural appropriation 🖕
Why are we not telling black people that wine exists? So thoughtless of us.
Wondering what the black grape pickers will think in Italy, Spain or France if they loose their jobs thanks to the white wine boycott from The Guardian? Maybe a class action would be right?
Fiona Beckett needs to lay off the wine for a bit
I’d forgotten about white wine, of course that has to be racist 👍 well done 🔔🔚😩
I was drinking a nice bottle while watching a basketball game. Is that a fair trade off?
White hate.
😂🤣 Is it any wonder the Guardian asks for money on it’s site? You guys just make up rubbish.
So wine is now racist
Wine is racist
😂 Absolute losers
So tell me what's the percentage of BAME employees? If you want to start rebalancing your journalists I can give you some suggestions.
“Fiona Beckett on Wine”...and on the cooking sherry by the looks of it.
Piss off.
Whole human race has become a caricature of itself.
White people are racist pigs because, roll a dice..... Wine?
Damn white people and their... (Shuffles deck)... Wine.
Oh, stfu.
Please shut up!
I think it’s time for a new direction for the guardian
Cringe. Stfu.
The Guardian is racist. The staff has deluded themselves into thinking they are woke but that is just due to the subconscious racism they possess. It can be easily evidenced if you ask them. They will all deny which is, as we have learned, proof of their white fragility.
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This sounds like islamophobia
Fuck me, this is beyond hysteria now!
The primary audience is the awesome audience. Don't let this stunt throw you off.
If you have time to complain about whine, you aren't oppressed
Great wine is racist now. I assume beer will be too soon being drunk in large amounts by far right people
i stopped my support for you after this! I wanted to pay for good journalism. Not shit like this, The author is brain dead! Literally! So my condolences with this, too!
When we click on this kind of material we’re part of the problem.
Wtf is this article? You guys are lunatics.
Grapes are racist.
Wine Apartheid, only in the race baiting Guardian. I like my wine from the Rheingau anyway, where the colour of the wine is the only important factor.
Surely the wine black growers make if it's any good will be drunk ? I doubt many people black or white ask if the wine they drink is made by black growers or white ?
Ah lads come on, I mean this has to be parody?
Oh dear God these people are certifiably insane. Someone please start hiring adult writers.
White wine is racist!
grauniadmeme
More laughable wokery from the Guardian. We aren't playing the game, we the British public see the flaws of intersectionalism and woke ideology. Individualism is all there is, stop promoting your hateful, divisive, racist, sexist ideology on us. Cheers
Don't pull that race card out. Make a better wine and stop whining until you do.
Is this satire, or just a really bad article?
More divisive rubbish from the Guardian. Why do you have to bring race into every topic. For pity sake, let people lead their lives under one law equally applied. You are causing hatred and division, helping no one.
Have we finally obtained “peak” Guardian? Or has grauniadmeme taken over...
“White wine lives don’t matter”
The next thing will be socks! Socks I tell you!!
Oh, the Guardian thinks wine is racist now. I look forward to next weeks articles about the racism in gherkins, fountain pens and shoe horns.
I always suspected that wine was racist and now I know. Thanks winematcher
Holy fsck. The Guardian are going after their own
You’re just taking the piss now.
Taking race baiting to new levels, well done the guardian
And they wonder why they have to beg for money to keep their failing rag going!
‘black ownership is critical.’ What utter hypocrisy ! Pointless waffle!
The guardian has officially descended into clickbait journalism !
Is white wine racist? What about black grapes?
Well ok, but hardly top of the list is it?
Finally! I haven’t had “white” wine for ages.
Maybe if we rename red wine 'wine of colour' and white wine 'racist bulge' they'll be happy?
Quick_one_two So now wine is racist.
And kill its business to suit you racists
If the media continues with the race bait crap, start archiving the articles before retweeting them. Don’t give this crap any direct clicks.
My son watching cartoons after reading the Guardian:
Ever wondered why it’s called ‘white wine’, even though it’s clearly yellow? decolonisefermentedgrapejuice
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is possibly the dumbest article I've ever read. Good job.
The manufacturers of Kool Aid and Grape Drank should do the same.
You're all having the time of your life over at Guardian HQ, aren't you? Absolutely living your best life at the minute. Do you have an identity politics headline generator in your morning meeting?
Enough is enough already. IdentityPolitics
Before anyone asks, I’ve checked for you, it’s not a parody.
WHITE WINE
What?
