A Sunday Times Wine Club crisp refreshing whites case (£60) produced this rather cheap looking Sauvignon Blanc from Chile’s Valle Central. It was cheaply packaged and very pale with hardly any aroma.
And it wasn’t just cheap looking it was cheap.
I haven’t managed to get a ticket to see Connie in the hottest show in town just yet. Connie Fisher’s prize for winning a BBC talent contest was the lead role in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s revival of the Rodgers and Hammerstein’s classic at the London Palladium.
But I thought I would get in the mood anyway by trying an Austrian wine whose reputation seems to be growing faster than The Sound of Music revenues.
My Grüner Veltliner came from the Wine Society’s “Exhibition” Range.
Stumble It!
