You could put it like that mate

You see I don't have a drink problem - I drink - I fall over - No Problem
I haven't yet discovered a 'New World' wine that I liked. That is not to say that they are not good wines, the ones I have tried just don't suite my pallet.

Ducan, you barbarian - bordeaux the best of the world?? As a fanatic Spanish wine drinker (the quality stuff), I have to disagree! I'll stay with my Rioja's, thank you!

As I said,
Everything I write is MY opinion

I have formed these opinions after drinking wine for some 25 years and I know what I like - as does every other drinking person

The Portuguese have a saying - 'Nothing but a bad wind and a bad marriage ever came out of Spain'. I have not yet discovered a Spanish wine that suites me but feel free to ship as many bottles as you like - I promise to try them all
Are you going to be at Vinexpo by the way as you said?

I am drinking a bottle of chablis I like it nice.
Suits my pallete. he he I have no idea what Im talking about.
Seriously though I bought this after talking to the guy in the wine department of a local superstore he discussesdthe type of wines I normally drink and suggested a chablis. He was spot on very nice.
Some of it is very expensive I might treat my self when Im flush.

Well I am delighted that you managed to start with an enjoyable white Dave. Chablis is one of my favourites as I said. I have been to the village a couple of times when we have been in Burgundy, a nice place.
Let me know when you are ready to start on the Red's
