Were those all from Laithwaites, Barry, or if not, where? The last one looks like an Aldi or Lidl special….
If they're interested, folk need to know where to buy the stuff, matey! ;)

I got them all from Laithwaites Marco (they're my vintners - I'm a lazy sod), despite the images for the last two having to be found elsewhere. However I'm not sure if either the 2009 Cap d'Or or the 2010 Taffard de Blaignan are still available from Laithwaites.Quote:

Ah, ok. However, not everyone will know that Laithwaites are your vintners, especially newbies, so best to state that info on your wine reccos in future :)
I recognised the Taffard, as I’ve got a bottle myself, and I know it either came from Tanners, Lidl or Aldi, which is interesting…. You may wish to check that out.

Actually, I’ve just checked and I distinctly remember that it was bought in either Aldi or Lidl. Remember I gave you some recommendations over Christmas, as Aldi and Lidl (especially the latter) were doing some ‘specials’?
You’ve probably forgotten that’s where the Taffard has come from, presuming instead that it was from Laithwaites, the same as everything else….

Were you thinking of this Marco? http://www.aldiliquor.com.au/top-bor...ateau-blaignan
Can’t do anything about it at the moment as I’m off to Greece in a few days time, but I’ll definitely investigate upon my return (or perhaps you could do it for me? :D)
Cheers
Nope, dude, it was the Taffard, which you listed earlier. It's defo from either Lidl or Aldi, not Laithwaites. I don't use the latter, so if the wine was from there it wouldn't be sitting on my wine rack ;)

Not available anywhere at moment is the 2010.......... Marco may have the last bottle:eyebrows: Unless I have one.:scratch:
That's a shame as it was a 'stonker' (to use Marco-speak).Quote:

I'll try most alcoholic beverages but my default tipple is Jamesons, sometimes with milk, full fat mind, saw it on an episode of lovejoy:)
