“World faces global wine shortage” is a striking headline. It probably got more readers than “Wine likely to get more expensive”.

I predict (without the aid of Met Office-style supercomputers) that this crisis will not have a major impact on most people’s lives. In fact it might help the barley-growers of Norfolk if consumption of beer goes up to offset the wine deficit.

There were a lot of grapes on the vine in my garden this year, but the birds got them. Maybe there is a global bird glut.
