Wine

[Sarge 4x4]

Off to Kefalonia on sunday and would like to know what would be close to a spanish Rioja ?

My experience of Greek wine is that it's all fairly terrible, but finding Roija over there shouldn't a problem I would have thought.

Think you are right, many thanks though.

Bet you don't find it any cheaper than here in eastern Italy, giant 5-litre flagons of decent white or red for 3.4 euros. Vodka, gin etc 4 euros a bottle. Makes you remember how it used to be before drink got taxed to buggery in the UK.

I think that's about to change big time after the tax hikes announced this week in Italy.

Don't even think of getting something similar :lol:

Retsina is a strong 'pine resin' tasting white wine and very cheap - try that. I enjoy it Give the local wines a go, just to say you've tried them
