What's The Wino Drinking?

What's The Wino been drinking lately? Well, hang on to your Riedels, Boozers, 'cause she's going to tell you. The Wino's been drinking La Croix Saint-Roch Montagne Saint-Emillon 2012, which she finds at the Budgens grocery a few blocks from her flat (See how she said "flat" instead of "apartment"? She's sooo London now.). The Wino would describe it as balanced with hints of dark fruit, particularly blackberry, a bit of black pepper, and nice, bright acidity. Maybe a some of vanilla??? Who knows. Anyway, it's a bargain at £5.99 ($10.20 - ugh, the exchange rate these days is utterly demoralizing) and pretty darn good for easy weeknight sipping.
 Glug-glug!
