The economic downturn has changed our outlook towards many things in particular on how we spend our money. For some of us, life is the same – same job, same assets, same person – but with the media hype that is surrounding the recession, we can’t help ourselves being a little wiser when it comes to shelling out hard earned euro.
There seems to be a trend beginning when it comes to shopping at ‘Small Local Businesses’. People are supporting the small businesses to avoid letting them become victims of the times. It doesn’t seem to be a problem to spend that little bit extra in order to get better quality products, often homemade or handcrafted, with the added benefit of supporting local. The same can be said for the consumer attitude towards wine. To appreciate a good bottle of wine less frequently as a treat whilst supporting small local wine merchants will be the way forward for many wine drinkers. A fine Bordeaux or New Zealand Pinot Noir enjoyed with a friend is set to be the preferred alternative to too many glasses of inferior quality cheaper wine that always seems to disappoint.
