The Spectator’s business editor Martin Vander Weyer — who moonlights as a poet and pantomime dame — needs no introduction: his wine-fuelled Christmas lunches are famously entertaining. Martin will chat about the business scene and the economy in 2022, read some of his poems and reflect on his 30 years at The Spectator. You will also enjoy a wide selection of wines from the much-lauded Journey’s End winery in Stellenbosch, South Africa, before rounding off proceedings with large glasses of inimitable Delamain Pale and Dry XO Cognac.
