Anyone recommend a decent Chianti Clasico? I was in Tuscany last year but struggling to find anything in Ireland that comes near the stuff over there.
The Ruffino Riserva Ducale is decent and fairly widely available.
Buckfast tonic wine is worth a mention here as well.

Lidl do this lovely one as well https://www.lidl.ie/en/international-wine-challenge-assortment.htm?articleId=9440
They have a lovely Gruner Veltliner, an Austrian white in lidl at the minute for 7.49. A bargain.
I drank a bottle of wine last night (of the RED variety). Had a Tesco finest sticker on it so you know it’s of excellent quality. Went lovely with a bag of Cadbury’s buttons.
You fucking rebel
Feeling it today. Work at 6am. Destroyed from chocolate buttons here
You wouldn’t be right for days after a bag of chocolate buttons. I could do it in my 20s but not anymore.
Skittles are the killer for me.
That might be more down to the cheap vodka they are floating in.
There’s an Italian wine sale in Lidl this week, beginning tomorrow
Ah lads. We had a couple over for dinner yesterday. What did they bring?
Liebfraumilch. Jesus wept. Can you buy that shit anymore?
The whiskey snobs will be seething. And very ill.
M and S new Wine Classics range seems worth a look. I bought the rioja. Very nice for under 12 euro.

Can’t go wrong with a Rioja. I had a lovely bottle of Riesling earlier.
