Right, this is actually a serious question - the recipient has requested a single bottle of red wine as expensive as I’m willing to spend. Anyone?
France would be a fine thing
go into a posh wine shop and say you’ve got £40 to burn
Go Trose. Get a bordeaux. Piece of piss
Watch Sideways, try and glean information from it.
you want a good tannin for this poor effort
nvm.
Mate.
fuck. sorry mate.
Dutch
A good bottle of the following:
St emlion grand cru
St Julien
Pomerol
Volnay
Any of should do the trick
It’s a tricky price bracket this one. Many really reknowned reds are in the £20 region and then in the £100+ region. So you could look at what won the Decanter/IWC Awards last year for Best in Class or whatever and get them one of those but they’re likely to be hard to find.
No-one’s going to turn their nose up at Chateauneuf du Pape. Go to a wine shop and ask what the best one they have in your price range is would be a safe bet. A good Barolo is never going to be scoffed at either.
alright big suze
I have a family member who know about wine and he’s always talking about having a lovely glass of Barolo on facey-b so you could look that up i dunno.
Otherwise just ask @elthamsmateowen or maybe check out this wine thread
32 pint cans of stella artois.
You seem like a barolo laughs
This.
It’s what I do ever Christmas for my sister in law. Give them a budget, tell them what sort of thing and they’ll sort you out.
Getting into wine myself
I have a few other ideas, but short on time to do a bit of searching to see if they’re out of that price bracket
Had this the other week though and it was lovely lovely (in the price range too!)
Ask me later, can’t think of any at the montepulciano d’abbruzzo
