With a name that recalls the Botrytis Cinerea, the noble grape rot that gives life to incredible wines, Noble Rot it could only be an incredible magazine dedicated to the nectar of Bacchus and its intriguing combinations with food.
Founded in London in 2013 by Dan Keeling and Mark Andrew, the most incredible culinary challenges have taken place in the pages of this quarterly magazine: since its launch it has seen chefs Pierre Koffmann, Fergus Henderson and Yotam Ottolenghi compete with Keira Knightley, Caitlin Moran , Brian Eno and Francis Ford Coppola, blurring the lines between gastronomy and the creative arts.

ISSUE 28 - COSMIC CHARDONNAY
In this number:
- Interviews with intergalactic physicist Professor Brian Cox and punk poet John Cooper Clarke. Cox blows our little minds effortlessly between the explanation that black holes are made of curved space and time and his fondness for Chardonnay, while "good doctor" Cooper Clarke takes away Noble Rot's Suzanne Moore in an epic and extended lunch.
- Travel to the northwest of Italy to meet some of Piedmont's most exciting new winemakers.
- The "New Food and Wine Dictionary" resumes with new contributions from Brian Eno, Angela Hartnett and Ed Balls.
- Our antisocial uncle John Niven reports on the Los Angeles food scene, Marina O'Loughlin tells us why she hates brunch and we present stories and recipes about Coteaux Champenois, restaurateur Peter Langham, poulet à la mode de Charolles and how to improvise a useful cheese board from your corner store.
- We also talk about why food and sex should never mix and more.
