Letters from the Wine Oracle

Dear Crumeister

Sorry for the delay. I have another job that pays the rent!

Hello again,

Anyone fancy two mid-week quaffers for under a fiver? Well then, look no further.

Yaldara Estate Shiraz 2006 (£3.99 Tesco half price deal)

Full bodied, warm, very rich and spicy. Dark fruits abound.

Cotes du Ventoux Chat-en-Ouef 2005 (£4.99 Morrisons)

Old vine Grenache/Shiraz in a new world stylie. Medium bodied, very spicy with a long floral/fruit driven finish. I really enjoyed this one.

All the best,

The Oracle
