Hooked on Innes & Gunn at the moment. Rum finish. It's like Merlot beer.
Good job it's only in little bottles.

Well.
Frankly, if I wanted to, I respectfully suggest that would be entirely my business, and nothing that you should be concerned about. I won't, however, principally because I can barely even drink myself under the table these days, let alone anybody else, and certainly not you big butch guys

Aspall Premier Cru to mark my first Friday night at home for what feels like ever but is, in fact, only three weeks.

The most curious thing..
I think you need to be having a manly drink (whatever that is? probably not Babysham or Port and Lemon), rather than be actually manly yourself - so you're in.Well.

I always judge a wine by the label ( not very scientific, granted ) and that's a cracker. Where did you purchase it?

Drinking San Miguel tonight
You're on the wrong thread!!
Very sound approach
Majestic (Canterbury). I had always been prejudiced against Spanish wine, having had one bottle on hols some years ago, finding it violent and unpleasant, (incidentally, this is why I have some sympathy with racism and bigotry). However, I decided to question my prejudices, when the manager at Majestic, knowing my inclination for Big Heavy French (think Fanny Ardent, the belle of film noire), directed me towards the Finca Carelio temperanillo last year. Since then I have been eschewing the frog in favour of the dago, and delighted I am with it

Love a heavy French as well and had similar experiences with Spanish as your good self but now love a decent Rioja. Current favourite though is an Italian red dispensed by the local off licence which is the nectar of the gods
