Favourite Wine

[Chasplaya]

My current favourite is a cheap South African Pinotage called 'Obikwa'. I usually like Pinot Noir but they tend to be more expensive.

My favorite wine is any one I don't have to pay for.

Hey Chas,

My Favorite wine is from Douro, but as I'm Portuguese, the prices are wonderful comparing
what you have to pay in US.

Last Year I discover another great wine from Cliff Richard (yes, Sir is producing wine in Portugal).

Cheers,

Jorge

Hey Joreg, Im from New Zealand which produces really great wines. I haven't tried many European varieties so maybe need to look them out next time at the store.

I recentlsaw on Gordon Ramseys 'The F Word' a segment where Sir Cliff had to taste several wines blindfolded and guess what they were and comment on taste. He didn't realise he was tasting his own wines and stated some of them were terrible , He was not overlly happy about being tricked lol.

Forgot to mention NZ prices range from really cheap to really expensive with a huge range in between so lots of choice - too much as my wife says lol hic!!

Has anyone tried Mick Fleetwood's wine?

[Chasplaya]

You mean this one?

Mick Fleetwood chose Winemaker, Mike Brown to blend 25% Cabernet Franc and 75% Merlot grapes from Westerly Vineyards in Santa Ynez for this distinctive, all-occasion wine. Aged for 30 months in French oak casks and 18 months in the bottle for optimal flavor development and structure, this wine earns the distinction: Mick Fleetwood, Private Cellar.

The answer is no lol But will certainly look for it now
