A very nice Chilean Merlot. Canto De Flora.
"This is a velvety smooth medium bodied Merlot with a slightly spicy
character and mellow flavours reminiscent of plums and blackcurrents"
That went down well last night with a chicken and noodle stir fry. I
might get another half dozen of those.
Cape Heights Reserve South African Pinotage.
"Full of delicious rich blackberry and redcurrent fruit flavours with a
twist of spice in every mouthfull"
Dontcha just love these flowery descriptions.
I haven't tried that one yet, but both are around £3.50 a bottle.

At those prices, I still prefer to buy a case or two in Belgium or
France.......
(There are some advantages to living in the South-East.....)

It's still only a concept, but I do know a quiet Chinese / Indonesian
restaurant just over the Dutch border.
Had a late lunch there eariler this year, with plenty of time for
shopping on the way.
Would help if we could start from the south fairly early in the
morning, best accomplished by us Southerners providing B&B for the
northern contingent, perhaps.
