Neil & Lottie meet Charlotte Hatchard, who’s taking part in the Altzheimer’s UK Big Walk, as the nominated charity of PriceWaterhouseCoopers. Dr Laura Phipps, of Alzheimer’s Research UK, talks about the early signs of the illness, and how it can effect sufferers.
Mark Anstead of the Cambridgeshire Wine School tells Lottie & Neil about the red wine you should be drinking this summer.
Mark talked about the following wines.
Jamie’s Italian Prosecco NV (Prosecco, Italy)
Made from grapes grown around the hills north of Treviso, Prosecco is a popular and fruity sparkling wine.
£9.99 in Tesco, on offer at £7.99 until May 25. (Restaurant price: £26).
Georges Duboeuf Chiroubles (Beaujolais, France)
This is village level ‘cru’ wine, which if it were from further north in Burgundy would make it more expensive. As one of the ten best quality villages of Beaujolais, that price difference makes it a summer bargain.
£9.99 in Waitrose
The Society’s California Old Vine Zinfandel 2011 (USA)
Sourced primarily from the warm vineyards of Lodi, a region renowned for making spectacular Zinfandels, this wine is produced for the Wine Society by Delicato Family Vineyards, voted U.S Wine Producer of the Year three times at the International Wine and Spirits Competition.
£7.50, The Wine Society
