The Wine & Whisky Thread

As I´ve told you before: "Don´t waste money in Vega Sicilias".

I think you will pay from 120 to 150 € for a Vega in a store.

I doubt it can be sold directly from the winemaker.

My experience advices me to look for the so called "cheaper" wines and really good ones you´ll find. I mean for "cheaper" no more than 5€ for a Ribera del Duero. There is too much competition due to production in the wine world.

Of course you can if you're willing to buy a few cases. And if it's anything like in Italy you can even buy small barrels of wine (say Barolo) from farms in the local wine producing area, or something almost identical which doesn't have a 'prestige' label
