    Has sobriety called on this forum ? Today a lovely crunchy Loire red Saumur Les Nivieres from Waitrose - good slightly chilled.

    I thought you already won the bet?

    I have been refusing to pay high prices for the best wines known to man for some time now. In fact even longer than I have been boycotting Jeremy Vine.

    Can I get the credit for this, as I got the blame for the initial bad news?

    I read this wine blog regularly and find Dr Goode's piece a useful corrective

    Is there no end to his talents?

    Time to stock up, it seems.

    The world is heading for a wine shortage, with global consumer demand already significantly outstripping supply, a report warns.

    Two outstanding buys at Sainsburys just now:

    Sancerre - ROC de L'ABBAYE (Florian Mollet) 2012 (bit upwardly mobile at £16 but worth it)
    Barbaresco - Taste the Difference range, blue label 2009 (£10, often seen on offer around £7.50)

    These both stand up very well even to spicy Thai and Chinese (the barbaresco's sweet-edged bite is outstanding with them), and the Sancerre was lovely with roast chicken/chicken salad too. It's a really flinty, ripe citrus/ mineral-edged classic - chill it well now!
