Slacker Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Had a couple of glasses of Apothic Red (2018) tonight with my dinner (ribs) and it was fantastic. DId a quick Google to see what the general consensus was and it seems to be a huge hit for plebs like me but looked down on by the wine aficionados, mainly because it's 3/4 different grapes and too sugary. I'll definitely be getting it again though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the best wines in the world are blends of different grapes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Nailed all my beers and a bottle of red (split with Mrs B, I'm not a jakey)William's Bros do not make a bad beer, and now Mrs B is at me to make a Fraoch, which I will. Firstly because I have heather in my garden and secondly because I can then drink lots and lots of Fraoch. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there were only one brewery in the world, I'd want it to be Williams'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
