March 29, 201412 yr was at a 50th at Clayton le Moors Conservative club was surreal!. I polished off three bottles of blossom hill soft and fruity. My no 2 this morning was just the same!
March 30, 201412 yr Cheap Coop Malbec, schoolboy error. When you say cheap, how cheap? I'll not bother getting a bottle though if it's shite, I've still got some M&S left from buying in bulk.
May 9, 201412 yr Trivento Malbec from Tesco £5.99; bargain I've had that, its a good un. Got an Italian Barbera D'Asti from M&S earlier. 6.49 on offer. In fact they had a gold medal red last week (french) on clearance for a fiver. Only had two bottles left on the shelf which i snaffled.
May 9, 201412 yr Aldi Malbec back in stock for the first time in about 2 months in Manc Arndale. Got the last 2 bottles, almost worth the 65 fucking quid food shop with a 1 mile trek home!
May 9, 201412 yr Are there 2 Malbec's at Aldi? Only cos the one I tried wasn't quite as good as I thought it would be. I have just had a glass of Rioja with my meal at a pub - very disappointed as most Rioja's are good even the cheap ones.

May 9, 201412 yr Yes one about £4 which is French and one which is £5.99 and Argentinian. I reckon Argentinian Malbec is about as consisently decent red as there is
May 9, 201412 yr I reckon Argentinian Malbec is about as consisently decent red as there is I'm a novice at it but i would agree. Sainsburys fairtrade malbec at £8.50 is another good en. Seem to pay over the odds for a decent bottle rather than stooping under a fiver and taking a risk. I think thats a sign of being old isnt it! Quality not quantity
May 9, 201412 yr Yes one about £4 which is French and one which is £5.99 and Argentinian. I have got a friend coming round tomorrow night and theres five bottles of red to get rid of. The Argentinian Malbec is alright but it is probably going to be the last if we make it through them all. The others are reet posh
