Wine - Sup of the Gods.

I am really enjoying wine.

Not any old plonk, but just nice, inexpensive, quality wine.

I'm not drinking it to get hammered; not like I can with the old Brandy juice and cola-cola!

No, wine drinking is a rather more civilised affair, and I want to be more bold with my choices so that I can know just a couple of my onions! I don't want to impress anyone else, I want to know for myself.

I'm a bit stuck on a REALLY delicious Vouvray (the creamiest wine, with the loveliest after-taste ever), and have been for a couple of weeks, and before that, a bit of a saucy Gavi (more citrus flavours, but still, I love it)

When I go out to eat, I love to see a really nice wine list, and the best I've seen of recent times, was in a brilliant Tapas bar in Windsor, called La Tasca. I believe this means 'The Pub' in Spanish.

Anyway....

I had a bottle of Marques de Vizhoja (hope I've remembered that right!), which was great with the seafood and aubergines I was eating there the other evening.

All of these wines are whites though, and I want to get in to some more reds, but so far, it's a one-horse race.

I was introduced to a Burgundy (Nuit St. Georges) a while ago, but there have been no others that have been really drinkable for me.

Too much oak, too watery, too full, too dry....Aaargghhh!

I call upon Bloggers with more experience in this game.

Recommend it to me, I'll try it, and let you know. How's that for a deal?


So, who's first for a suggestion...Span?

Or one of you other drunken bums?!!!!
