The next voucher in Threshers’ 40% off series has arrived. This one will carry you through until New Year’s Eve. It looks like they’ve suspended their 3 for 2 offer while it’s on. Remember if you want cheap wine you may find better deals at the supermarkets, but Threshers do carry some nice regional wines… Read More »
It’s that time again, Threshers have issued their 40% off wines voucher ahead of Christmas. It’s not as enticing as it first sounds as you can get 3 for 2 on their wines all year round, and they tend to have priced that offer into the single bottle price. That said, a deal is a… Read More »
This weekend Alejandro Valverde won the Dauphine Libere, in what could be a warm up for the Tour de France. What better way to celbrate than with a Torres Vina Sol 2007, Torres most successful wine in the UK. It smelled fresh and fruity with green apple and a little spiciness. It was dry with… Read More »
When someone is heading out to the USA it’s only polite to have a Californian wine to wish them ‘Bon Voyage’. Twin Fin Chardonnay 2005 is cheerfully packaged in a summer holiday style, looking an awful lot like it’s Australian wine. It’s a rich golden lemon colour with a creamy, toasty oakiness on the nose.… Read More »

We had a Radcliffe’s Barolo 2001 this weekend. It had been hanging around in the wine rack for about a year, waiting for its opportunity to shine. It was dark with a slight tinge of brick around the edge. 2001 isn’t old for an old style Barolo, but this one was made for relatively early… Read More »

Thresher’s have taken sparkling wine out of their 3-4-2 offer. Boo! However, they have produced a 30% off all sparklers voucher to ease the pain. As with the 3-4-2 it’s worth having an idea of what you’d pay for the wines elsewhere as it’s not always a super saving, but here’s the voucher for your… Read More »
So AC Milan are European Campioni, a bit of a poor show with three English teams in the semi finals, but as they lost out despite being the better team in 2005 it seems only fair they take the trophy after a disappointingly dull final. I had a Radcliffe’s Regional Classics Valpolicella Classico 2005 to… Read More »
There’s something life affirming about Verdicchio. It tends to come in a fun, curvaceous bottle, although as the wines get more serious the bottle often does too. I had a 2006 Moncaro Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico to go with some fusilli bucati with broccoli and tomatoes – a quick, cheap and happy meal.… Read More »
