In return for your helpful ideas I have a tip of my own for you:
This stuff is fucking delicious and an absolute bargain at its current price:

Of course you have to business with arch cunts Tescos to get it for a fiver a pop
but quite frankly I'd do business with Pol Pot for some more of this superb wine.

Why don't you just steal it through the self service checkout thing.
All the cool kids do.

Because it's hard to run when your 'trackies' have nine quid's worth of sweets stuffed down them.

If I could be trusted not to cane them - and if I had any money - I'd buy a couple of cases.

So, one bottle it is, then.

My brother managed to maintain a two-tier system for about five years
(one rack of 'daily' wines, twofers etc and one of 'big guns') before he finally twigged that having a minimum of two dozen bottles of wine in the house at all times was not particularly good for him.

I've had three glasses of cleanskin wine tonight.
I don't know what kind of wine it was or what percentage, but DAMN it was nice.
(, Wed 11 Jul 2012, 13:52, Reply)
cleanskin is great.
UK supermarkets still haven't properly caught on to being able to get the French equivalent for pennies.

Or maybe the British public won't buy it. Either way, idiots.

I fucking love a good clean skin.
this was a really full bodied cab sauv or something similar, lovely dry notes and smelled AMAZING. No wonder I had three full glasses.

Their white is OK and all
If you tolerate Chardonnay.

The problem with "cheap" chardonnay is that to cover the cheapness they "oak" it, but not with oak (flooring)
but with a chemical which tastes rubbish.

I had an exquisite ad expensive glass of Chardonnay at Benares a high end Indian restaurant, it was great with the spicy food

You are achingly bent.

yeah, vanillin.
I prefer US chardonnay, particularly Sonoma stuff. But a good Aussie one is excellent value. Wolf Blass Yellow Label on offer is the way forward.

Try as I might I cannot get excited about white wine of any kind.
That said, I once had an unoaked Chardonnay which my brother in law (a wine dealer and collector) gave me, that was fucking nom. I had a bottle of Cloudy Bay about ten years ago when it was still rated, that was also v nice.

The end.
(, Wed 11 Jul 2012, 13:55, Reply)
Cloudy Bay is still rated
it's just about 30% overpriced.

Dog Point Sauv Blanc
Is 99% as good and exactly half the price. Give it a bash.
