Hey Blousie
Tesco are trying to get me to join their wine subscribers thing. I'm half tempted but can't decide whether my initial case would be New World Reds or Old World Reds. Which way would you go?

I would go with what ever is going to get you drunk the fastest.

I'd say Old World
but honestly, there's great stuff from all over the world, you're not going to lose whatever you choose.

Agreed.
Although I've always preferred French wine over anything else. Especially beaujolais for some reason.

I generally prefer Spanish

There's two Riojas and a tempranillo in the Old World set
Unless it's top-end Rioja tastes to me like licking old leather.

Not that that is necessarily bad. Yes Mistress!

Got any Malbecs in there?
Also, Italian wines are uniformly excellent.

Two Rioja, a St Emilion, A Nero D'Avola, a Madiran and a Pinot Noir Shiraz
whereas the New World has Cab Sauv, Pinotage, 2 Pinot Noirs, Malbec, and a Shiraz.

I'm leaning towards the New World, I admit.

Looks like a good selection.
In other news, I've just had one of the uber-geeks going on at me about something called Powershell. It's been a while since I've glazed over, smiled and nodded a lot.

why can't you choose both?
why is wine so ageist?
