I decided to check out the wine offers at my local TESCO, following on from my purchase of red I decided to go for the white. Tesco Hock at £2.06 for 75cl was on offer; this coupled with my 50 points club card wine coupon made for a potentially good deal.
***THE PRODUCT***
The wine came in a glass bottle 9% alc by volume. It has a screw top slim glass bottle. The front label is white/green with details of the product plainly stamped, on the left side further details concerning consumption and storage. There is no label on the back; this is unusual for Tesco.
The Hock produce of Germany (Deutscher Tafelwein Rhein). Selected by Tesco
Style: Light & dry refreshing medium sweet white, Store: in a cool dark place. Once open drink within 2 days. Serve chilled; enjoy on its own.
Allergy advice contains sulphites.

Advantages: Reasonably priced, easy to drink! Disadvantages: Very sweet
Ah! I?ve gone a little while now without writing about anything alcoholic so I feel the time is right for another wine review! Of course, I hardly ever touch the stuff really, it?s all in the name of research? ;o)
This time? The item under scrutiny is Tesco?s Hock. As usual I have bought the large 3 litre box full of the stuff for about £7.50 but it is also available in standard(75cl) and large bottle sizes and is reasonably priced too ? about £3.00 for the standard bottle. They?ve certainly spared every expense on the box design anyway! It looks a little cheap, admittedly, in simple brown and beige colours with a small castle on it but the contents are much nicer.
Again this white wine is firmly on the sweet side of the tracks, a little sweeter than I normally like being a medium white drinker normally but it is very pleasant ...

Frankie and Benny's is a New York Italian themed restuarant. It is a chain which currently has 180 restuarants spread across the UK.
Frankie and Benny's originally began when Frankie Giuliani was just a little boy. He moved with his family to an all Italian neighbourhood in New York in 1924. Before long Frankies father managed to get a restuarant up and running in which the whole family pitched in and contributed their own favourite recipes, but the best recipes always came in the form of 'Mammas home-style cooking'. Frankie started high school where he met an American boy named Benny and made a life long friend. When Frankies fathers retired in 1953 Frankie and Benny took over the business where they combined 'the best of popular American food with traditional Italian dishes'.
