I couldn't resist a quick look in our local Nicolas, for the first time since it was Oddbins. RThe stock was not so bad really - nowhere that has Chateau Simone can be all bad. And then:

Assistant: "Can I help you Sir? This Spanish Crianza is very good."

Me (slightly bored): "Really? Who's the producer?"

Assistant: "Bodegas. Great guy - really knows what he's doing!"
