Survival of the fittest
I'm not a very sporty person. I hated sport at school, always tried to be goalkeeper in hockey so I wouldn't have too much running around to do and loathed gym with a passion. I mean, what is the point of climbing up ropes or springing over a horse? I was mediocre in tennis and netball and didn't mind a bit of trampolining, but that was the extent of my sportiness. I can't even swim or ride a bike, not having been taught to as a child. As an adult, I avoided sport like the plague. I avoided doing it AND watching it. Whereas most people go mad over Wimbledon fortnight (which takes place a short tram-ride from where I Iive), I cannot bear it and get annoyed with the endless coverage on TV. I might watch the occasional football match if it has some historic significance, but even that leaves me with half an eye on the TV doing something else. I hate the Olympic coverage and, as to why footballers earn vast sums of money just to kick a ball about, escapes me (and not always perfectly

A Tour of Wine Grapes: Chenin Blanc
Chenin Blanc Chenin Blanc is a white wine grape variety that has been cultivated in France for nearly 1300 years. It is most commonly associated with France's Loire Valley. French documents first mention Chenin Blanc as early as the year 845, and the variety has appeared in various parts of the Loire Valley under a multitude of synonyms since. Today, just over half of the world’s production of the Chenin Blanc grape is from South Africa with approximately a third being grown in France. Photo by Chrisada on Wikimedia Commons Its high acidity levels mean it can be produced in a number of different styles: As (1) a sweet, botrytis -affected dessert wines, (2) light, honeyed sparkling wines and (3) as full-bodied, still white wines. (1) The sweet, botrytis dessert wines are most famously from Sauternes, France. (2) Light honeyed sparkling wines are often from France including Vouvray Pétillant and Crémant de Loire. (3) Full-bodied still wines are produced around the world including South A

When is the 'right' time to drink wine?
It's rare to remember a conversation held 12 years ago with as much clarity as this one but such is the power of great wine and ideas when they collide. The conversation in question was held over a bottle of aged Barolo shared with a wine marketing man Ed Donaldson, who said "This wine reminds me of a plan that our family has put in place because we're really aware that people drink our wines as soon as they're released, which is basically too young to taste what we're aiming for. Because we lov...
