One word: 'Matheus'

red wine should be drunk ususally at around 16 degrees, much cooler than the average room and much cooler than when tepmeratures outside are in the mid 20's.

Some reds, particularly Loire, should be served a few degrees cooler than that.

I asked recently in the Dog if they had any red wines in the cooler and was given a very snotty "we only serve red at room temp" in reply. I didn't bother to reply.

Asset.. you should have remembered you were in The Dog - not the Loire.

Nicolas stocks a really nice rose from Corsica. Can't remember what it's called but it has a map of Corsica on the bottle and costs ?6. i like it cos it's not too sweet.

G&B have one or two Corsican wines too - very fond memories of Corsica so I pick one up from time to time

To have with a nice home-made burger obviously

They stock a ros? from Chinon which is really nice as well.

One chilled sparking red wine I often drink is made by Banrock Station. It is actually a real treat, it's like drinking a red champagne, and it's full of a whole host of flavours. Goes great with beef wellington.

I agree the Sparkling Bankrock red is bloody lovely!

sparkling red(?)

You'd have thought - but I tried that a few months back and it was not as bad as you'd expect.

At 5.30 on a dim Monday evening a sparkling red sounds just the thing to perk up the palette... one down, four to go (days that is, not bottles). I'll look out for it.
