Up to £50 I'm a malbec drinker usually so owt that's similar. Chocolate Block; only £23, but really nice Stags Leap Cabernet Sauvignon, a budget stretcher, at £66 Ive got a highly-regarded Jauma, recommended by them, but only £23 or so. Then I’m keeping a bottle of the Frogs Leap Merlot, at £40. I haven’t tried any of their Malbecs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does Macron not know the dangers of alcohol? Surprised he's not blocked its sale, it may have side effects in a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I buy most of my wine from Aldi these days. Bought a box of this yesterday... Really nice and a fair price. https://www.aldi.co.uk/portuguese-douro/p/075724270716800 Edited March 20, 2021 by wanderer1984 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried a bit (naughty as I’m not drinking weeknights) and it’s very nice. Not a classy Pinot, I suspect some trickery has gone on down on the mexi-Cali border, but it’s got the tang on top of the smoothness that you need in a Pinot. It’s called Beachfront. £6.00. A good effort for that much. Edited March 24, 2021 by Spider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
