Paula's Wines of the Week starting 14 January 2013

If you really like a certain wine, rather than buying it in single cork-stoppered bottles why not get in larger three or four bottle-sized amounts available in boxes?
You’ll find many supermarkets sell the same wine in bottles and wineboxes, but check out the equivalent price per bottle and you’ll find the winebox wine works out cheaper. Wineboxes have other advantages. Dispensed through a plastic tap dispenser, wine boxes do away with the annoyance of broken corks and tainted 'corked' wine - improperly sterilised corks spoil at least one in ten traditionally bottled wines.

Top Ten Last Minute Christmas Bargains this week. Because, if you’re like me, then you’ve been concentrating on the nosh side of Christmas rather than what wine to match with the roast turkey, the cold turkey, the turkey curry, the mince pies, the puddings, the nuts...yes well. So here are ten wines ranging from Aldi’s £3.99 stonking value Italian red to some posher clarets at over £10 a bottle. And what these wines have in common is that they’re all well worth the money.

Top Five Sparkling Wines of 2012 this week. Which makes a change from 2011 where there was such a dearth of the decent bubbly stuff that a top sparkling round-up couldn’t be justified. Things are a little better this year. But while we’ve had a Top Ten Whites and Top Ten Reds, and even a Top Ten Under A Fiver, there still wasn’t quite enough tasty fizz this year to make a top ten list. So you’ll have to make do with a top five instead. And here they are.
Massive rise in price of Brussels sprouts
- Monday, 10 December 2012
There has been a 69 per cent increase in the cost of Brussels sprouts - sparking fears the unpopular vegetable could be left off plates this Christmas.
The cost of Christmas dinner has soared by more than double the increase in wages over the last five years, according to new research.
This year's festive meal with all the trimmings is 14 per cent more expensive than in 2008, costing £129.47 compared with £113.26.
The sum was calculated by experts at trade magazine the Grocer who averaged the cost across all of the big five supermarkets.
