A 'right bank' claret and a best 'next door' wine (one from a vineyard situated next door to a top estate).
The 2005 Bordeaux's were always going to be a hard act to follow, but 2006 has produced some excellent early-ripening Merlots.
70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. Best before 2012. Laithwaite's, approx. £11 a bottle. This wine must be decanted as there is significant sediment.
Have just slurped a couple of glasses with a cassoulet (not a patch on the cassoulet that Marco's wife Del can make!), however still very enjoyable.

Good News oenophiles -
Tesco have reintroduced the half price offer on the 2005 Berberana Reserva Rioja. Always a good weekday 'slurp'.
Also they have offers on spirits: 10 year old Laphroaig now £21.

Stock up for Christmas!

Stocked up on vino tinto at Tesco today.
Didn't get the Berberana as its 13.5% and I have a rule not to go over 12.5% which unfortunately rules out the Southern hemisphere and a lot of other good stuff.
Lot of French wine is around the 12 mark but so is the price:(
3rd bottle of the Berberana opened between me and the wife, I fear it will end in tears!
Depends who has had the most :cheers:Quote:
