Exhibition Pauillac – from veg to meat
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009At £17.50, this must one of the bargains of the whole wine world. The catch is that you have to be a member of the Wine Society. But don’t worry, they let anyone in these days. You don’t need to roll up one trouser leg and hop through the door like when I joined. No entrance exam, you don’t need to know anything about wine. You can even have an empty bank account, as it is one of the best value (only budgies go cheap) wine retailers in the UK.
With its rich history and extensive storage, frequent offers of interesting, old, and remarkably priced wines regularly appear in my email inbox. I have neither the storage space, nor stomach capacity, or indeed material wealth to buy them all so I am extremely selective.
