She has recently filmed for Amazon Prime as part of The Three Drinkers presenting team alongside Aidy Smith and Colin Hampden-White called The Three Drinkers do Scotch Whisky, airing in November 2018.

A member of the prestigious Circle of Wine Writers, Helena has written for various consumer publications and her videos have been featured on various websites. She also presents workshops at consumer fairs, has appeared as the wine expert on live TV and often speaks to The Two Mikes on TalkRADIO. She runs private wine tasting events in London, writes and edits copy for wine businesses and sits on various tasting panels for competitions.
