Red wine - not sure if they do it in white, pink or green ;) Sorry Ria :lol:

We only bought it because it was on a special offer - well, you know our Grumps :lol: - normally 9.99€ a bottle and we got it for 1.99€ :shock: :o So we bought 6 :lol:

Portel de S.Braz.

Rather fruity but best with red meat, we think.

1.99€ :shock:

Bung it in the windscreen washer bottle - best place for red wine, it's a great bug cleaner and an anti-freeze as well.

I find that a good Sangiovese is a good all rounder. It has an aroma of cherry, anise and tobacco leaf and can remove the skin from your fingers in no time at all.

T'was gert lush - a tad warm, well, we are warm at the moment, but better with food, rather than on it's own.

Warm or cold, just bung it in the washer bottle, job done.

If you absolutely must drink the Devil's tipple then go for a fruity German white from the Mosel or Rhine yards.

Or go for lager beer, available anywhere. 1664 is my choice but I do hear that some lower types drink Peroni, Stella and even Juupier

We went to Sainsbury's last week as they had a special offer on. So got the last seven bottles of white wine which mrs.e likes. Will last her a few weeks.

Not as cheap as JanB's. Wish it was.

Bargain!
I like a Malbec but Pinot Noir has anti-inflammatory properties. So for health reasons I've been drinking that. :D
