What Was Your Most Recent Bottle of Wine?

[Roger Webb]

Jaboulet Croze Hermitage Blanc 2018, aka "Mule Blanche" - if I were given this in a bistro with some salami and cheese I'd not be unhappy. But somehow at home it's not special enough at the price point (about £25 a bottle) to buy more. No viongner, a grapefruity flavour which could be described as bitterness by less charitable people than yours truely. Industrial. Meh, as they say.




I picked up this half bottle from Hedonism - I like their Easter display

What caught my eye was the Quad 63s on top of the Gradient Subwoofer (I think?). I've just changed my 63s for the latest 2812 and use them with the Quad L-series subwoofer, with some success.

The wine looks ok too!

A delicious fruity Spanish red from Tesco, very reasonably priced at £3.65

Wow! That's cheaper than the Spanish Merlot I get from ALDI at £4-something. Or is that £3.65 for clubcard holders or a limited offer? I'll trot along and find out.

Not a Clubcard price, and no mention of a special offer, either!

Thanks for the recommendation. I purchased a bottle and can confirm it is quite pleasant. The catch is it's only ten per cent alcohol content, but that needn't worry us. At these prices, no-one will call us wine snobs.

Under 11.5% abv. Even cheaper, if you went for non-alcoholic. Down the hatch!
