Cheers :) Doing it (1) on a Thursday and (2) during the international break, thus no chance of it getting in the way of the Albion :thumbsup:

I think Sainsbury's and Waitrose have the 25% thing on currently, which is why I was aiming to get a move on (well, that, and the fact that the wedding's in August) :)

I've long had a plan of going out somewhere one night purely for the purposes of this experiment: to order the bottle costing a few hundred quid, just so I can see how it tastes by comparison to my usual (not to the local Harvester, obviously). I just haven't got round to doing it yet, this year...

These two are never NOT on offer at Tesco. I'm absolutely convinced the "full price" they suggest is heavily discounted has never once existed. I wonder what they pay their suppliers for it?

I'd genuinely love to try a (say) £500 bottle of wine, just to see how it compares, taste wise, to something considerably less expensive. Well, I say that: I've love to try a £25,000 bottle of wine for the same reason, but for research purposes, I'm willing to stick to something ever so...

I don't consider myself a wine snob. I'd probably struggle to differentiate between various wines across the spectrum. But I do know Blossom Hill tastes like cat piss. That's not snobbery, it's just the fact that it's truly disgusting.

I got a free case of Le Piat D'Or from P&O Ferries a couple of years ago as a "bonus" of booking a Dover- Calais crossing. I think the box is still sitting in my garage now (I did wonder if I might use it for some sort of beef & red wine stew, but had largely forgotten about it until now).

I am far from a wine expert, but Blossom Hill White is comfortably the worst wine I have ever, ever tasted. I'd rather sink an entire case of Le Piat D'Or than that stuff.
