@ArdenPaul4 Thank you Paul and -as our go-to Spanish wine guru says - the Rose is great.

@midweekwines Excellent choices Brian. Unusual to see a 'Provençale' style light-coloured rosé coming out of Spain. Bet it's good though 👍 Not sure I've had straight Bourb either. Nice one 👏

@doughtagnan @VinoViews @Tesco Really good example that punches well above its price point.

Ps @VinoViews @midweekwines this cheap as chips (£6.75 on CC) Bergerac from @Tesco isn't too shabby either.
