Care to share more details, Tim?

We used to get a pretty good, and _very_ cheap Sauvignon St Bris from
Sorin de France. Interested in the name on the Morgon, too.

Our current house table wines are usually coop cheapies from the southern
Rhone, Rasteau, Beames de Venise, Vacqueyras. These coops do reliable
work for around 5 Eu. There are a few Loire thrown in there too, but
really mostly Rhone. For white we often use a coop Schlossberg Riesling.
