(I don't suppose you folks realize that one of the things that drove the
beer and wine people away and thus devitalized this venerable old newsgroup was grotesque cocktails. It was an issue in the late 1980s and finally boiled over about 10 years ago, causing other groups to split off. Now rec.food.drink resembles a once-vital city center with deserted streets, old newspapers blowing around, occasional advertising, but very few people except the occasional pimp, drunk, or crank ...) |

I am sipping a glass of a not-too-toxic two dollar red wine, a Pasco Grion Cabernet. (Their two dollar merlot is barely drinkable.) As I approach retirement and my tastebuds deteriorate, the exquisite quality of excellent wines is less enticing than the low budget impact of Cheap Red Wine. What is everybody's favorite CRW, how much, and where do you buy it?

Hi Martin
Well actually I was given a recommendation of a good red wine last week. The person was not sure of the name but it is in Lidl's and only costs about £3.00. She said it was excellent and tasted like a really expensive one. However, sorry the only other lead I have is that its name is "wood" something. I have not been in the shop yet but I am going to look for it and it should not be too hard to find Phyllis "Martin Golding" > wrote in message >... > On Thu, 06 May 2004 23:44:26 -0700, Max Hauser wrote: > > > (I don't suppose you folks realize that one of the things that drove the > > beer and wine people away and thus devitalized this venerable old > > newsgroup was grotesque cocktails. ) > > Let us re-repulse them.
