Are you back boltondiver?

Looks a nice drop that, although I am enjoying a Muriel rioja just now, just £8 from the local coop and is lovely.

English “champagne” is seriously good nowadays.

Not in Dom P territory but won’t be long.

And they still stock a lot of Some Young Punks, which is excellent.

They did have a Penfolds Bin 150 a few months ago which I bought for a special occasion then drank the same night with fishfingers.

Just opened a bottle of Campo Viejo Rioja 

Meh!

Can’t remember where I got it but likely as not a bottle tombola . It’s drinkable but not so I’d rush out looking for a case of the stuff.

First had it in Calahonda, must have been about 25 years ago. 200 pesos a bottle. Gave it a go when it came over here but never got into it. They have about 5 varieties now - I saw they recently brought out the “winemakers’ selection”, in a purple bottle. Haven’t tried that.

Very nice

Available online only, or in shops too? 

I bought a few bottles of Pulenta Estate’s Palma Carola as a Xmas present to myself a couple of years back and that was really good too.
