kfurbank Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Actually thanks to Nigel's advice at The Bure Valley Fish Restaurant I find the locally (Suffolk) produced Shawgates wines very acceptable. Nigel normally has a couple on the wine menu, the Bacchus is particularly good. The Bure Valley also stock Calvors a locally produced lager. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't Mark! Without my Renault Scenic cdi I would have struggled to drive home after the holiday.

Baitrunner Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Hmmmm. Now that is a problem poppy. I don't hate the French, just dislike the ones who don't make nice wine!!!! Is that wineist? Not sure you know where most of the parts are made for cars anyway nowadays. Most of it is assembled in x country with Asian produced parts. I will report on the standard of champagne in a week or so when I sober up and confirm if I like the French then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
