What's your favourite red?

[Marcia]

Mine are:

Hardy's Nottage hill cabernet shiraz 2006/2007
Hardy's Crest 2007/2008 (just finishing the last of a bottle now)
Yaldhara estate

I tend to go for what i like usually Australian most of the time.

Is that Australian?

Seventh Moon Merlot was a favourite of ours, until the UK seemed to run out of stock about 4 years ago.

We had a sensational red from Uruguay (of all places) at The Summer Lodge in Dorset a year ago, but can't remember what the name was.

Crow's Landing Shiraz is a favourite daily slurp for us now (apart from some 30 day aged clover home-made stuff!)

the stuff my uncle Enzo (yes that is his real name) makes in Italy, its just out of this world. nothing ive tasted since has came even close. saying that though, im by no means an expert!

Dear All,

an open one?

Anyway, my favourite to date is 2000 Les Forts de Latour (Pauillac). Very special, deep and rich but so it should be for that price. Thanks to the Wine Society I paid about 1/3 of its current value en primeur, boast boast

At the complete opposite end of the spectrum next time you have a spag. bol. and just need some weekday lubrication try Tesco's Sicilian. It varies year on year but it is great value at the moment.

regards,
Jet

Château Musar. A treat since it's around £20 a bottle.

One of the NZ Pinot Noirs.

Ata Rangi (even their 2nd tier Crimson Pinot Noir)
Dry River

Both equalling the best Burgundy has to offer.
