Boostin' Kev Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Had a quick skate to Tesco to pick up some organic Puglian vino and a Californian Malbec. Got an extra bottle of the organic one because I that probably won't cause a hangover. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About £10 a bottle from supermarkets here but I (happily) paid £30 in a Madrid restaurant. Reminds me of a good quality Mouton Cadet. However, when I went to Morrisons this week they didn't have it any more! Going to have to find it somewhere because it's honestly lush. I'll look out for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it does it’s not getting it. 3. I’m now in the conservatory as the sun lasted about five minutes then it got really cold. The bottle is still going though... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bread & Butter is really good, isn't it? Me and Mrs SL just finished the Chardonnay! There's a Majestic delivery of a mixed case of Pinot and Chardonnay getting delivered next week. Well, got to get through this lockdown somehow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs DD views it as a crisis if we don have any. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiegoDiego Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Why are so many of the beers folk post on this thread in 330ml cans? Is it some hipster fad or is there a logic to it? Last time I lived in Scotland most people (not me) looked down upon beer in cans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I lived in Scotland most people (not me) looked down upon beer in cans.Canning technology has improved massively so the can doesn't spoil the taste of the beer. Lighter to transport, less risk of breakages. No light hitting the beer which could otherwise taint the taste over time. Easier to recycle. Gives a pretty big space to brand as opposed to a tiny label on a bottle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made the order at 11:50am and delivered to my door before 3pm (about 25 miles away) for free. Really good beer that one.

Granny Danger Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Whoever on here who first brought this Malbec from Aldi to my attention deserves a vote of thanks from the Danger household. It will be accompanying duck and roast potatoes this evening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
