We are greatly saddened beyond belief to announce the death of our spiritual leader Sir Ronald Halstead CBE, a scion of business, who served us as Chairman for over 20 years, then President, then Patron. He was one of a kind **thank you Ron from the bottom of our hearts**
So true...
Wine salesmen and women: the unsung heroes of an industry that likes to fool itself that good wine sells itself.
But what makes a *good* salesperson?

President Trump just now: "When somebody is the president of the United States, the authority is total."
Fact Check: That is definitely not true.
By comparison the US seems to be running at nearly 30% infection rate (positives/tests). Suggests true US infection rate possibly 10x what's been confirmed so far?
Other comparisons... S Korea 196k tests, 7.3k positives (3.7% infection rate; UK 23k tests, 319 positives (1.4%)
How many Americans have Coronavirus? Number of Americans tested: <2000 (source: The Atlantic, 6 Mar). Number of positives: 545+ (NY Times, March 9). Italy: 42k tests, 6k positives as of the same date.

Agree completely Sarah. HMG have clearly assumed we're all stupid and can't add up. Other govt assumptions from the past week: 1. laws don't apply to HMG if it doesn't like them; 2. UK citizens can't tell the difference between lies and facts; 3. Optimistic waffle = policy

Max Hastings, ex editor of Telegraph and boss to Boris Johnson: “Boris Johnson is one of the most brilliant and entertaining journalists that I know but the tragedy is he thinks he is Winston Churchill but the reality he is Steve Coogan” - on Radio4 any questions just now
Adrian Bridge: wine industry needs to frame choosing to drink wine as choosing ‘economic, social and environmental sustainability’ @CCL_Porto2018 @WineIntell
Prof Mike Veseth: wine business requires ‘generational’ commitments and exists in fragile economic system - so it is more likely to ‘get’ the climate change problem @CCL_Porto2018 @WineIntell
Huge thank you to my brave and thoughtful panellists Antonio Amorim @amorim and Paul Willgoss @marksandspencer . Keep messages simple, do a few things really well, recognise that product quality matters just as much even in a ‘sustainable’ setting @CCL_Porto2018 @WineIntell
Fantastic work on sustainability in the vineyard and winery @CCL_Porto2018 from Maggie Henriquez and Cristina Mariani-May from Krug and Banfi respectively @WineIntell
Barnstorming speech from Miguel Torres @CCL_Porto2018 who asks: can wine industry be the leader in mitigating climate change? What’s stopping them?
Congrats to Adrian and the team at the Porto climate change leadership conference - looking forward to a great speaker line up @CCL_Porto2018 #wineintelligence
