In 2010, Gibb received the Emerging Young Wine Writer of the Year award from the prestigious Louis Roederer International Wine Writers Award.[3]

Rebecca Gibb MW started her career in the wine industry working for a wine merchant in Darlington, England where she completed the WSET Diploma course.[4] She was the news and features editor of English wine trade magazine Harpers from 2006-2008 before working as a freelance journalist and editor covering world wine news for a number of international print- and web-based publications including Decanter, Wine Business International, Imbibe, Food & Travel and Sommelier Journal. Gibb joined Wine-Searcher in 2012 and headed the site's editorial content until May 2015. She joined Hong Kong-based Le Pan magazine in May 2015 and was its wine editor until the publication ceased operations.

In September 2015 Rebecca Gibb became a Master of Wine.[5] Out of a record class of 24 graduates, she was awarded the Outstanding Achievement Award for excellence across all parts of the exams and the Bollinger Medal in recognition of outstanding tasting ability[6]

Her research paper focused on the causes of the 1911 Champagne riots.[7]

gollark: I wonder if you could somehow find the *most* compact possible representation.
gollark: There was something like that on the Lua Users wiki actually.
gollark: If you pass the unserializer very safe\* functions like `load` and `debug.setupvalue` and all that, you could serialize almost anything!
gollark: I was looking at trying to address the main issue with it - the possibility of```luatextutils.unserialise [[ (function() while true do end end)()]]```things (its _ENV is sandboxed, so it can't do anything other than denial of service attacks) but I think you would *basically* need a parser to prevent that.
gollark: `textutils.unserialize` is really bad and just uses `load` internally, see.
