wine to bring back from France? (1 Viewer)

Another vote for Roche Mazet boxes, good quality, to my limited palette,at a reasonable price............and boxes have the added advantage that you can sneak the odd glass without SWMBO knowing and they keep when opened.

The problem with wine suggestions is that kind mans favourite is another mans poison.
I'd pop into Majestic wine is Calais who have wine to taste before you buy

Absolutely but the op did ask what wine to bring back, you can only recommend what you know

Sometimes people ask the wrong question
You don't know what you don't know until someone offers you a word of wisdom

If your traveling from Roscoff go and see Fred at wine supermarket, cant miss it London doubledecker bus outside, tell him you know Terry from Saltash he will look after you. I brought back over 200 bottles, well equivalent of!

Leclerc sells boxes of Vieux Carion (translation = Old Crow?) Merlot & Cab Sauvignon. 5 litres = approx €11 and 10 litres = approx €21.

Or you could take yr empty plastic water bottles into a Cave and buy it from the petrol type pump - price varies. Only downside I found that I can't drink 5 litres quickly enough in hot weather and not all of it can take being fridged.

Just remember though, the best wine is the wine you like.

J P Chenet is always a favourite of mine, it was recommended to me by a seasoned traveller whilst I was browsing through the bottles on the Supermarket shelves, and what a good choice it turned out to be

And of course you know that you have had too much when the bottle neck is straight.

. It is from a range called Expert Club and is a Corbières.

At the risk of lowering the tone I can only think of Jenny Pitman and the 1983 Grand National when I see this name.
