Review of Lambrini by
xxfoxyredxx
Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Everything it's awful and insulting to my palette

A celebratory drink from yesteryear
Review of Babycham Sparkling Perry by
basketofbuttons
Advantages: Cheap to buy, widley available, alternative to sparkling wine
Disadvantages: Too sweet and sickly to drink to much
...first time I ever tasted Babycham was when I was about 17 years old. I thought I was so grown up and sophisticated. This drink seems to have been around for years. The last time I bought any was the day before Christmas Eve 2012. I bough ...

Cloudy Bay Pelorus Sparkling Wine.....
Review of Cloudy Bay Pelorus by
MEL0611
Advantages: Crispy and dry, great flavour, easy to digest, good price
Disadvantages: This maybe to dry for some
We kept the New Year quite low key, we had a couple of friends over, put on some nibbles and offered out some drinks. None of my group of friends is big drinkers and I would comfortably say that none of us know our wines that well so I didn’t feel under a ...

If it's good enough for Winston
Review of Pol Roger Brut Réserve NV Champagne by
Jennster85
Advantages: tasty
Disadvantages: none
Pol Roger is one of those champagnes that I would not pick to buy or to drink in restaurants yet I was familiar with the brand because Sir Winston Churchill was one of their most famous customers thus they named one of their champagnes after him. This rev ...

Not quite as good as James Bond, but tastes nice nevertheless
Review of Country Manor Medium Dry Perry by
Walowiz
Advantages: Good value for money, easy to drink, comes in a box
Disadvantages: Hard to get the box into the fridge
Why did I buy it:
I bought it because I had never bought a box of wine before and I did think that one bottle of wine wasn’t going to be enough for the purpose I had in mind. I believed it to be far more cost effective to purchase a large 3-litre box as ...

Lanson Rose Champagne
Review of Lanson Rosé Champagne by
Delphine57
Advantages: Expensive looking and tasting
Disadvantages: Expensive cost
I was amazed to be given a bottle of this expensive bubbly as a gift. I have since found out that this superb champagne costs around the £30 mark for a 75cl bottle.
The Look
I have to start first with the look of the bottle – which I think is stunni ...

Jennster85
Advantages: full flavour

Cheap and not very cheerful!
Review of Lambrini by
stebiz
Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Not very cheerful
I enjoy a nice glass of wine, like many people, when I settle down in front of the TV after a hard day at work. I prefer mine nice and cold and it is nearly always refrigerated. On occasions I will also drink wine with my evening meal.
One wine I have t ...

Review of Bodegas Faustino Cava Brut Rosado by

Taste the Difference with this one peeps
Review of Sainsburys Taste the Difference Champagne by
Walowiz
Advantages: Taste, price, bubbles, romantic onnotations
Disadvantages: The label
Why did I buy it:
I wanted to impress, if I’m honest that was the primary reason for buying this particular champagne. I can be a bit of a show off and though it was an ‘own brand’ champagne, it was dark outside on the boat and I had hoped that no-one w ...
