I tried canned wine for the first time The cans I tried were Most Wanted Pinot Grigio Fizz Popular wine La Vieille Ferme recently launched a canned version I tried wine from a can for the very first time, and while I was unsure on the taste, I will still buy it again for one reason. But before we get into that, let me first explain the reason behind purchasing canned wine for the very first time. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Wine: I tried canned wine for the first time - now it's my summer must-have | Panama - One of my favourite wines of all time for summer is La Vieille Ferme Rosé, and they have recently announced a launch of a canned version of the popular drink , which has been affectionately nicknamed 'chicken wine' by fans, due to the chicken illustration on the label. I was eager to try the canned version of La Vieille Ferme, to see if it was just as delicious in a can as it is in a bottle, but sadly I couldn't find it in my local supermarkets. Instead, I decided to try any wine in a can, and picked up the brand Most Wanted. I purchased two flavours, the Pinot Grigio Fizz and the Pinot Grigio Pink Fizz. I purchased the cans for £2 each from Morrisons. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad To be honest, I wasn't overly impressed with the taste. I do think wine in a can doesn't taste anywhere near as good as wine from a bottle, but it certainly wasn't undrinkable. In fact, despite the flavour not being as great as wine from a bottle, I decided I would definitely purchase again and this is down to one main reason - convenience. I think that canned wine is an excellent choice if you're going on a picnic and want to pack lightly, or even for bringing along to a barbecue. Also, I felt that it was more refreshing than wine in a bottle. The can was a lot colder after chilling in the fridge, compared to a glass bottle, making it a nice cold drink during the hot weather.

In National Curry Week we test Jalfrezis from supermarkets including Aldi, Lidl and Tesco to find the spiciest curry It comes after the supermarket was trialling a major change to its aisles by using robots to undertake a "crucial" supermarket task. The retail giant will be the first in the UK to test "Tally" robots, designed by US tech company Simbe, which claim to be the world's first autonomous inventory bot. Three towns in the north of England will experience the robots first, which "check that products on shelves are being displayed correctly and are legally compliant". Advertisement Morrisons technology manager Katherine Allanach told The Grocer: "It is a crucial but time-consuming task and so Tally aims to allow more time for colleagues to focus on customer service." The retailer is the first in the UK to invest in Simbe's robot, which utilises AI and computer vision to independently move its way across store aisles. And last month, the chain closed 16 of its sites as it pushed ahead with a major overhaul. The Morrisons Daily convenience stores shut their doors permanently on April 16, following a decision announced last month. Advertisement However, one location in Haxby will remain open for a few more weeks, closing on May 14.
