I'm quite partial to a bottle or two of Shepherd Neame's Spitfire Ale myself but then I am a Kentish Man and common as muck. I have also been known to sup of the Bishops Finger... :lol:

Pinot Noir grape, 13.5% ABV
It’s been a long time since I enjoyed a Nuits-Saint George burgundy. Bought for a double celebration: posting my 7,500th post here on AoS, and, more importantly, to celebrate my birthday. :)
Not cheap at £32 a bottle, but who cares? – it’s Christmas!
Enjoy, Barry - I'm sure that it'll be scrummy! Oh, and most importantly, :birthday:
:mex: :champagne:
Have a nice one, dude! :cool:
Marco.
Thanks Marco.
(Actually my birthday is tomorrow - but I may open the bottle for tonight's dinner!)
Had a good session on this at the weekend :santa:

Nothing to recommend - but you never know when you might need this trick... :)
I think it's been laced with something..................(sorry)
Soft on the tongue?
Perhaps a 'cheesy nose' with a salty aftertaste? :D
Marco.
