Mrs Ray is recovering fast from her op and has weaned herself off hard drugs in favour of cocktails and fine vino. It hasn’t been easy drinking for two this past week and it’s great to have her back on the team. She was certainly a huge help in narrowing down the excellent selection of Corney & Barrow own-label wines to the following eight bottles. It quite brought a tear of pride to my eye to see my missus at work, tasting freestyle without recourse to any spittoon. She has a gift that girl.
C&B have been selling wine for almost 250 years and boast a brace of royal warrants, so it’s fair to say they know what they’re about, and their own-label range must surely be the finest in the country, giving you everything you need for a wine-soaked Christmas, backed by a 10 per cent discount.
The C&B Sparkling Blanc de Blancs (1) is ridiculously good value even before discount.
