Wine Recommendations

Denbies in Dorking having some excellent Sparkling white wine. Bought a bottle as a Xmas treat and wasn’t disappointed. There’s a good vineyard tour too so I’m told. It’s only 20 miles from us so definitely plan a visit soon.
 
If you’re in Gloucestershire then the three choirs vineyard is worth a visit. One of the longest established (and multi award winning) vineyards in the uk.
 
Nero d'Avola can be vey good. Be careful it isn't always. I believe it should be big rich and luscious. Generally the best are Sicilian.

When in Waitrose I tend to pick up the Salice Salentino c £7 ish and the cheap Waitrose brandy. Neither are the best but both are cheap ish ( its Waitrose !!)

I’d agree with that. Had some wonderful Nero D’Avola but also some pretty undrinkable stuff, including in Sicily itself.
