Bargain Vin De Table heads up

[Zak33]

LO people.

I've been a long standing fan of Cuvee De Richard red, from Majestic, cos it was £3 per bottle and consitantly good.

But it's gone up in price hugely (cheers Gordon, nice work on the exchange rate and our ever strengthening pound there bud) and my last purchase (prolly will BE my last purchase too) was at £3.79 per bottle.

SO it's off the evening wine glugging list at CHez Zak,

Bingo... Lidl save the day, AND improve on it.

Same area of France, Vin De Pay's de L'Aude, it's a 2007, and while the tannins have already dropped out of it, and left it with no where NEAR the crisp colour of the majestic offering, it tastes as good as gold, and is smooth and round, and....

/drum roll

£2.99 for a LITRE bottle! this week only.

Thats a bargain

And after than back to it's normal £3.39, which is still good value.

Look for THIS

De l'aude is always a favourite in our household, consistently good quaffing wine - especially when from source*. De l'Herault is also consistently good too.

*and by source I mean the local supermarket near the 'rents house in france.

I won't be frequenting Lidl... due to information supplied above, as I've still got my reserves of 2000 Bordeaux to drink, then it's the 2k5's (yum)
