El espiralo: Leicester v Spurs

This match is worthy of its own thread. It is probably the biggest fixture on the not606 calendar.

 

Drunk any heinously expensive wine this weekend mate?

 

Thanks for asking.

Had a bottle of Chateau Batailley 02, which I bought en primeur. Sold a mate some at £20 a bottle as got loads of it.

Was on the Herradura last night. Delicious: do you like tequila?

 

Does anyone actually like Tequilla? I associate it with falling over, so it's a no from Tobes.

Excuse my ignorance but what does en primeur mean? When it was released?

 

Before it is bottled.

Good tequila is smokey, lovely like a good single malt. As is good mescal. A sipping rather than downing, drink.

 

You must have a sizeable cellar then mate? I've always enjoyed wine but can't have the Sommelier level bollocks talked about it. A decent bottle is a decent bottle to me.

 

I've been talking with GM on another thread about good rum, just got myself a good bottle for Christmas. I'm very excited.

 

I've tried Ocho Blanco and yes it is better than the crap you get in the supermarket but still nothing special, I wouldn't want to pay too much for a tequila.

That’s the whole point of wine, and many other things.

It matters not how often some expert or connoisseur tells me something is the dog’s nuts and I should love it, if don’t like it, I don’t like it...

Blue Nun and Black Tower, eh, Tobias?

 

What's the Harvesters wine list like mate?

 

I noticed Black Tower was £6 in ASDA what's that all about?

 

Not too bad, as it happens. There’s a cheeky little Malbec that I always have with my surf ‘n’ turf.

Thanks for asking.

 

Blimey!

German Riesling can be lovely. But that **** ain’t it!..

Not unless it’s changed dramatically!..

 

I would have thought it would be £2.99 or something like that.

 

I always get a bottle of Diplomatico in for christmas
