To be honest, I deleted a few. I consider it not worth my time to list Cinzano, Mulled Wine, Bucks Fizz, Lambrini and Sovio. This is a wine website and it's mine.

Lulled into torpor by 2 hours in chair having hair coloured and cut. Need Tio Pepe to bring back my spark, but MUST wait until 6, or else.

How do you drink your Tio-P Mel?

I prefer off-dry to sweet sherry, dry Fino can be too salty, terpsy, abrasive. Know of any good cocktails/mixers?

Reason I ask, my local Tesco Metro downsized to an Express and sold off loads of stock, I picked up four bottles of TP for just £3.19 each. Even though I knew I probably wouldnt drink it, I just couldnt help myself at that price. One is already in a gift bag for someone.

What to do with the others?

The answer is straight forward:

Send to Mel and Me

Tio Pepe - salty ? I don't find that, I need my T. Buds examining

Not necessarily Tio-P, but dry Fino in general can have a saline edge, for me anyway.

I sometimes think it is to do with my mouth lining - since very dry lean and mean chab, cheap overdry champers and Montana basic '08 does that to me.

After nearly 40 years of enjoyment - I have learnt to shun the mean, lean and twisted dry whites - no pleasure. The 80's fashion for them is finished.

On the scale, Tio Pepe, the TP finish is nearer a 2 for me.
