Here are five very simple way to get better value and more enjoyment from wine yet still try to look after yourself.
To try to catch the closing dates for many online operations, there are two posts today. The first offers fabulous red wines for lunch while this one provides the sparkle that no Christmas should be without.
Nowadays Christmas is not just for turkey, so here are a group of luxury red wines to grace and enhance whatever may form the centre piece your Christmas lunch.
Christmas lunch calls for a bit of luxury, so today and tomorrow we round off my Christmas selections with suggestions that fill that bill perfectly.
A glass of fortified wine was as much part of Christmas Past as holly and mistletoe but the rise of table wines has reduced the demand – so here is a glimpse of what we are missing.
No wine drinker wants to appear (if you will forgive the double meaning) as a plonker, so getting advice and extra information from reliable, well written and entertaining books is a Christmas activity that keeps on giving.

Sainsbury’s begin a new 25% off multi-buy promotion this morning. Use it, for example, to stock up on a tasty red at £3.57 or to knock nearly £8 off a classy Chateauneuf du Pape.
As the latest Tesco promotion seems heavily inclined towards brands, I have tasted through a number of their branded wines and am hugely impressed by one red in particular.
