WTF is going here ? The only comforting thread in off topic has now got people who don't like alcohol so add fruit juice to wine, or are teetotallers ! Or 'special offer' off wine specially for the Brits in Calais. Is this thread crapping ?
I don't know whether to be grateful that the thread is still active, or go and open a bottle of wine. Am trying to save my liver for tomorrow.
I didn't like to say anything, but it did seem a bit strange that a thread about wine was attracting comments from people who don't drink alcohol. The Calais/Lidl thing is fine, because the topic was 'value'.
I didn't get it right, incidentally. The 2016 Bourgogne Rouge from Henri Prudhon in St.Aubin that I grabbed is too lean to carry the richness of the turkey and all the trimmings, the acidity too high and the fruit too restrained, far too young. Oddly enough I made a similar mistake last year. Bloody experts!
A new wine thread next week I think. 2017 Rhone & Burgundy, the current offers going from the wine trade out in Nov-January.
