Blue Nun is back â but is it any good? As a wine expert, hereâs my verdict (opens the original)

Considering the German Liebfraumilch has sold more than a billion bottles since its creation in 1921, you may wonder if it ever actually went away, but it most has definitely been relaunched. And if there was ever a wine brand that needed a refresh, this was surely it. Like many, I have a history with Blue Nun. It was the brand that got me âinto wineâ in
Think corner shop wine is bad? These £7 bottles are actually worth buying (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When was the last time you bought a bottle of wine from the corner shop? We are, after all, a nation of shopkeepers. Well, thatâs what Napoleon allegedly said about us as an insult, but I think itâs quite a compliment. The corner shop is often a quiet bedrock of our community. The warm glow of the lights behind the oversized photos of milk, bread and glasses of wine acts as a comfort on those early mornings when you realise youâve run out of milk for breakfast, or bread for a packed lunch

Have you noticed that something often happens between the second and third glass of wine? It’s that small, joyfully devilish voice that tells you “just one more” is definitely a good idea.

England is, without a doubt, the most dynamic and interesting wine region in the world right now. Growers in the UK are operating with a sense of ambition, belief and a pioneering energy that’s magnetic. It’s not a feeling that we’ve felt much of recently as a nation, but with just a little support, English wine has the potential to impact real change on the communities it’s grown in and beyond. Our viticultural roots can be traced back to Roman times, but things didn’t get more serious until th
Forget Aperol – these are the spritzes you should be drinking this summer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Is a spritz the perfect summer drink? Probably. It’s nearly always served over ice and can legitimately be drunk with a straw. (Yes, I’m a grown woman, and yes, I like a straw – so what?!) Most importantly, it can transport you to diamond-glinted waters with just one sip, even if you’re just in your local park with your mates. But best of all, it’s a drink you can easily make lower in alcohol to keep things fresher and lighter. Our spritzy love affair is still in its honeymoon period. Aperol onl
