Judging covers


It's been a long week at work and having arrived at Friday we decided to treat ourselves to a bottle of Chardonnay, some nice cheese, crackers and a chick-flick. 

So, I opened a wine from Santa Barbara that we'd never tried before, one with a wacky label! It didn't disappoint, lovely fruit, apples, ripe pears, citrus, off-dry with a really nice mouth-feel to it. I picked this up at a wine sale over in Hampshire the other week I think I paid around £15 for it (it's normally around £30) At the time I thought it looked a bit naff (just look at the label!) but now I regret not snapping up a whole case! As the old saying goes, never judge a book by it's cover!
