Nor I.

I did contemplate ordering 6 bottles through Waitrose groceries online service. ( no delivery fee but £50 minimum spend ). I would've bought the Alsace gewurz, either the Blondelet or the Chatelain Pouilly Fume in the hope that my faith in the cabbage patch of the Loire would be restored. The Glyndwyr 2006 sparkling rose which looks lovely with it's pale orange hue but is probably sweet tat and 3 SC VC's because I can't help myself.

I didn't place the order though because I opened another 2010 JE and thought....wine just doesn't get any better than this.

When Sainsbury run out of the 2010 I shall cry.

There is no JE10 in the whole of Majestic, just checked earlier this afternoon

Mystic Meg MSB at WR was a let down. After that I looked at some other stuff but.... what was it ? Too mainstream, or too predictable. Craggy range Renwick was not on offer, their cheaper chablis is too acidicly vicious.

There was a cheap Spanish wine from the North East with an unusual grape variety that was good £5.99 I think- Can't remember the name of the Wine or its capsule. But.....

I bought a Rustenburg SB for experimental aging curiousity- not WR

Nor I.
