Merlot is great!

Merlot is great!

As a laugh, I called it 'Hunters Duck' and it's stuck in our head. So the girlfriend and I have to sit and think for 5 mins to remember it's called Turner Road before doing the food shop.

In recent years I've actually swung from reds to mild whites like Italian Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc. But reds?

Sangiovese or Carmenere
D'Alba from northern Italy

Mateus or other Portuguese semi bubbly Rosè

Egri Bikáver from Hungary

Peruvian Borgoña from my wife's hometown. A semi sweet, very fruity and aromatic light red wine.

Never wine or other products from Chile! Especially fish. They have U.S.corporate backing and use underhanded criminal tactics to take advantage of their neighbors. Chile illegally sends fishing boats into Peruvian waters and basically robs them. The U.S companies which reside in Chile fully back this economic bullying just like they do in many other countries. I never willingly give my money to such, even if they have good shit.
