MancWanderer Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Never been a fan of South African wines but as @Spider says @globaldiver’s recommendations are always spot on so I’ll give that a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really do only get these things as one offs. They had a Pinot noir a couple years back called Plow and Press that was easily worth £40/50 a bottle being sold for £12. Mate of mine even rang the German distributor but was told there’d be no more. tease Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had one in the evening after getting back from Wembley. I still have one left. Hoping I have to pop to the shop for another later this season… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
