This is the weekly columnFollowers of my wine writing know I do not do negative wine reviews. I consider myself a curator rather than a critic. If you want snark about a particular wine, others are happy to satisfy you.Why this conscious choice? There is limited space and time in my newspaper columns, online posts, podcasts—and my life, for that matter. I choose to spend that allotment on subjects you may enjoy and convey positive commentary about wines, people who make them, and where they are made. The world has a plethora of people engaged in putdowns and callous comments. I am not among them.That said, there are wines I do not savor, and I have flirted with mentioning them in the 16-plus years of this column. Excellent wines do not have to be expensive, but they are seldom cheap. If you spend less than $10 on a bottle, the odds are good it will not be undrinkable, also not remarkable. Wine is a business. You get what you pay for.“Supermarket wines”—frequently touted as exclusive although they often are generic commodity wines with a catchy label slapped on a “shiner” bottle. But they are drinkable. They oftentimes have added residual sugar—no winery goes broke making sweetened wines—and ramped up alcohol. Fine. If you enjoy, it is good wine for you. Just know, quality wine can be more, especially when married to a quality meal.There are boxed wines—really a bag in a box—that are environmentally responsible to the Earth and fiscally responsible to your budget. Bota Box and Black Box certainly have more than drinkable offerings, and there are others. There also are several bag-in-a-box wines that are plonk made only so the wedding party or the charity gathering will juice up the participants while not bankrupting the hosts.Quality wines cost money because they take time, effort, skill, and luck to make them. Those are the wines I print/post about. It is a wonderful privilege to receive many of these wines free from the wineries who want me to review their effort. I also purchase wines to review. In all cases, as I sip and stare at the screen on my computer, my thought is “would my readers and followers find joy and pleasure?” If yes, I write. If no, I delete.Wine is a special food that has enhanced human life for 8,000 years. All I want to do is a small part in advancing that mission.Last roundIf cats could text you back, they wouldn't.

The Finance Minister is looking to boost competition in New Zealand's supermarket sector - with a final push to encourage new players to enter the market. Nicola Willis says any new retailers looking to enter would be given 'VIP treatment' from the Government, removing regulatory hurdles impeding its growth. Former Costco managing director Patrick Noone explains that international retailers have to deal with their own challenges when trying to enter the New Zealand market. "Real estate prices were a massive barrier - there's just not a lot of retail space available to be purchased or rented. So I think that's a huge barrier."

I reckon Nicola Willis is bluffing - she's having a laugh. She's not really going to take a sledge hammer to the supermarkets. She has threatened to do this, she's had consultants come and do some work on it, but she's not serious about doing it. There's two main reasons as to why not. One: Splitting up the brands like Pak N Save and New World form each other is a drastic action to take. It could affect hundreds of mum and dad-owned stores who run their own local supermarkets and form part of co-ops around the country. Then there's the problem of prices - the fact that co-ops like Foodstuffs exist means they can spread their costs around the country and make prices more even between the regions. What happens to the price of Pams biscuits at Pak N Save Kawerau if it's split from its brother and sister stores? Does it come down or go up? If it goes up, so does Nicola's credibility. Splitting retail land from wholesale also risks creating a middleman to go between the two, thus pushing prices up anyway. These are all arguments for why not. There are also arguments for these, but at this stage they're not specific, they're just - prices are too high, so we'd better do something. All that's before you even get political support for such a move - which wouldn't involve ACT - so it would need help from across the aisle. I think, in the end, the risks will be too great and the benefits not clear enough for Nicola to smash the supermarkets to smithereens. I also think she knows this and she's hoping the threat is enough to yield some results - and that it will go down well with the public, who are sick of paying through the nose for groceries every week at the checkout LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Finance Minister is hopeful she can bring more competition to the supermarket sector. The Government's seeking advice on breaking up the duopoly, possibly separating their retail and wholesale arms. Nicola Willis says New Zealand currently has one of the least competitive grocery markets in the world - and Kiwis are paying more at the checkout as a result. "What I want to achieve is a properly competitive market, to put downward pressure on prices, to motivate innovation and to ensure that shoppers get more choices."

As briefly touched on earlier, changes to how the supermarket duopoly in the country have been put forward by Finance Minister, Nicola Willis. Currently there are only two major supermarket chains in the country: Woolworths and Foodstuffs, with this move aiming to establish alternative options to how these companies operate. News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to the Chief Executive of Consumer NZ, Jon Duffy, about these developments, and how the organisation are feeling about them. They started off by asking him how much of a concern the current duopoly is.

On Sunday, Finance Minister, Nicola Willis, announced plans to combat the supermarket duopoly between Foodstuffs and Woolworths. This could include breaking-up or restructuring the current chains, with Cabinet also announcing a formal request for information, or RFI, into the matter. For our weekly catch up, News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel,  spoke to Te Pāti Māori's Takutai Kemp about this announcement, and whether she, and the party, thinks this will be enough to address food accessibility in Aotearoa. We also discussed the comments made by Green MP, Tamatha Paul, about the police, and whether she believes these comments have become sensationalised. Finally, we discussed the party's calls for mandatory police body cameras. But first, they started off by asking Kemp about how the party are feeling about Nicola Willis' most recent announcements into the supermarket duopoly.

A key player in the 2007 break-up of the telecom sector says he's optimistic for the first time that change is coming for the country's supermarket duopoly. Tex Edwards spoke to Alexa Cook.

The government says all options are on the table when it comes to breaking up the supermarket duopoly. Business editor Gyles Beckford spoke to Alexa Cook.

The government says it's keeping all options open to shake up the supermarket sector. Prime Minister Christopher Luxon spoke to Corin Dann.

The Economic Growth Minister says overhauling the supermarket sector will deliver benefits for grocery shoppers. Nicola Willis spoke to Corin Dann.

Labour says National's latest supermarket announcement brings no new competition or price drops and will do nothing to break the duopoly. Labour's commerce and consumer affairs spokesperson Arena Williams spoke to Alexa Cook.

The Government has said all options are on the table as Finance Minister Nicola Willis issues a six-week request for information. Willis threatened to break up the current supermarket players, floating the idea of restructuring the two existing supermarket chains. Foodstuffs North Island Chief Executive Chris Quinn talks to Mike Hosking about the announcement. LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Government says all options are on the table as Nicola Willis issues a six-week consultation to ensure 'all options are exhausted.' The announcement has been met with disappointment by Prime Minister Christopher Luxon says the six-week period is reasonable. "Maybe other governments in the past haven't actually thought about things or been prepared to go as as deep as what we're proposing, but I think it's a good thing," he said. LISTEN ABOVE.

Talk about teasing me on a Sunday morning. At 10am we are told Nicola Willis is giving us the good word on supermarkets. She doesn't like the industry - she's been telling us this for a year and a half. She is going to do something about the industry - she's been telling us this for a year and a half. So, Sunday was the day. Except it wasn't. It was yet another diatribe about what needs to be done, what could be done and what might be done. There were more threats, more possibilities, more questions and more investigations. It was also a speech of hopeless contradictions. On one hand she was telling us how hard it was to enter the market at scale and how big that risk was. Then she was telling us this was a $20+ billion sector, more than tourism and dairy combined, and yet she clearly hasn't stopped to ask herself if that big. Do you not think anyone who could, might have had a bit of a look at the prospect of entering it? She talked of a player being able to grab 10%. That's over $2 billion dollars worth of business. You don't reckon someone, somewhere hasn't looked at the prospect of $2 billion dollars worth and thought "I wonder if that isn't a bit of me"? To find out why we don't have more competition, she announced she was launching yet another investigation. Then after six weeks she may, or may not, get Cabinet to do something legislatively. If that happens she wants to do it by the end of the year and get it passed by the end of the term i.e the end of next year. So an entire term in Government having literally not produced one more shop. As I've said all along, it may be we are too small for another major player. Maybe the niche players, along with the two giants, are what are market tolerates. But as for Nicola and her finger-wagging, if threats were results then we'd be getting somewhere. If speeches were shelves of well-priced food, the issue would be dealt to. But for a Government with an image of more talk than action, she didn't do anything to help that reputation.

A grocery sector expert says he's pleasantly surprised by Nicola Willis's plans for the sector.

That could include separating the retail and wholesale arms of Foodstuffs and Woolworths.

The Government wants to make it easier for a third major supermarket to come in and break up the duopoly. Nicola Willis announced today that she has issued a Request for Information, asking supermarkets what changes are needed to help them compete with the big two. These include local supermarkets upping the ante enough to compete, or overseas companies launching in New Zealand. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has pledged to enforce a new taskforce to toughen laws on supermarkets engaging in price gouging.

One expert has voiced concerns ahead of the Finance Minister's announcement to improve competition in the grocery sector. Nicola Willis is set to detail the next steps in the Government's moves to create more competition in the sector - and she's voiced support for a third player joining the market. Grocery policy expert Ernie Newman explained why he's not feeling too confident this will lead to real change.

Kathleen investigates the chemicals used in chicken preparation and packaging for sale in supermarkets. Peter talks about the benefits of exercising the soleus muscle, future guests and our featured author. Kathleen's Deep Dive Conventional chicken is often soaked in chemical baths, including chlorine solutions, to reduce bacterial contamination. However, this process boosts the weight of the chicken by 15% which means you pay more for more watered-down meat. Look for  “air chilled” processing practices and pasture-raised chickens for cleaner, chemical-reduced options. The article is at the link in the "Mentioned On The Show" section below. This Week's Health Tip Kathleen spoke about Dr. Morse's Ultimate Detox Kit and following a diet of raw fruit and vegetables. She explains  the transformative power of the Ultimate Detox Kit and fasting program as it guides your body's natural detoxification process to unclog all channels of elimination, flush toxins from the system, and revitalize the body's organ systems and functions.

The UK has set a pesticide reduction target of 10% over the next five years. The UK Pesticides National Action Plan from all four UK governments says it will support farmers and growers to reduce the potential harm from pesticides, so rather than farmers using 10% less, the plan wants more sustainable use which reduces the impact on the environment by 10%. While environmental groups have welcomed the plan they describe the target as modest. The government says that UK farmers reduced pesticide use by 60% between 1990 and 2020, at the same time worldwide use in agriculture increased by 90%.

The Finance Minister says there will be an announcement in the next week on the Government's next steps to encourage more competition in the supermarket sector. Nicola Willis has previously indicated intentions to encourage a third player into the market to challenge the two incumbents. She explained while it's good to have a niche provider opening - unless someone is opening multiple stores, it's hard to get competition impact. "I've been engaging with a range of smaller players, and that's something I've identified. It's clear to me that the Government will need to take further action."
