Wine By The Mile. A motorhomers personal choice.

We used to really like the marques de riscal rueda but it kept going up in price! They have a very impressive winery with a distinctive hotel in rioja

What stores in Spain sell that. I prefer reds but have quite taken to that verdejo grape. The Hachon label have a similar wine in lidl for I think 1.99 euro but shelves are empty of it.

Don't know where it's stocked in Spain we used to get it at majestic in the UK. We had a tour of the marques de riscal winery in rioja and it was on the tasting at the end although it's not actually produced in rioja.

I think by the time you add duty and vat to those prices it's actually a lot cheaper in the UK in terms of what you're paying for the actual wine!
I bet the usual rip off Britain lot won't believe that!
We shop at Aldi so quite often try some of the wines they also do a wider choice online and you can tell when there's a good one as they sometimes sell out fast. At the moment we stocked up on the 25% off offers at Sainsbury's at the bank holiday so are okay for a bit and got about 100 bottles for our daughters wedding on the same deal.

I've always preferred the asda 25% deal as they sometimes reduce the wine by a few quid then knock the 25% off. With regards to UK prices. I reckon that if I shop around Spain and France I can save at least £3 on a bottle of decent wine.

You should save more than three quid unless they're making more profit in France and Spain the duty alone is almost£3 then there is vat on the wine and the duty!
A lot of the wines we got on the Sainsbury's offer were discounted first then 25% off. Our nearest alternative large supermarket to Sainsbury's is a 30 to 40 mile round trip. I do like the offers when on at Tesco as their posher range own label wines actually list the maker in the small print so you can spot good buys.
