Mine was the Casillero del diablo merlot, I was actually wanting a bottle of Fleurie but the shop didn't have any in but still the Merlot was not bad for £6.49

Casillero is pretty good for the price....
I normally drink Rioja but I bought the Diablo a couple of years ago and loved it.
I usually drink the red label bottle but saw the black label cab sav and gave it a go...

Not that often I drink red so usually its a case of getting the best one I like when I do and couldn't get it tonight but was not disappointed by what I ended up with, Gin's going down a treat though so might be a very late night as ive got fuck all to do tomorrow except watch the darts and take the dog for a couple of walks.

I can't drink gin... I was sick on it when I was about 12 and now can't even stand the smell of it.
My wife and eldest daughter like the gin.. We must have about 15 different flavours of the stuff...

First time I ever drank Gin was with my younger brother who is a year younger than me when we lived in Belgium....

My dad had a massive hamper arrive from one of his suppliers for Christmas and in it was 2 bottles of Gin which my mum or dad never drank, I was out with my little brother one night on the piss and we got home and no beers left in the fridge or fuck all we could pinch out of the old mans stash so we decided to steal the Gin, So as to hide the fact we took it we opened both bottles, Poured about half of each into a jug and filled both back up with water and glued the tops back on with great care.

About a year later, My Aunt and Uncle from N.Ireland come over to stay with us for a couple of weeks and both loved their Gin, So would have a couple late at night, After they left and went back home a couple of months later we stayed with them over at theirs when we went over to visit family, Had dinner one night and my Uncle offered me and my brother a Gin, Without thinking we both said ok thanks and had the 'Gin' we were given.....

I took a swig of mine and said....I think you forgot to put any Gin in this....To which my Auntie said....Yeah...I bet it tastes like the watered down shit we had to put up with at yours after the bottles were filled with water!! lol

Washed my chinese takeaway down with 2 bottles of Hardy's Crest Chardonnay, Had a few Heineken's before hand and will either go back on them in a min or opt to rip into my Whisky collection.

It will be interesting to see what the pubs will be like when they re-open..
I think that they will be manic at first, but long term, I don't know.

It will be nice to enjoy a nice cold one in a pub garden, that is for sure
