The Cottage Smallholder

I'm limited to what I can carry, since my flat is in a no parking zone, and I have 64 stairs to climb.

But if I were you I'd be tempted to phone your local Sainsbury's to see if that offer is on, and go get that offer, or order on line, and get loads.

I think I'll go back tomorrow for another half dozen.

I rate the Hardy's Crest above the Isla Negra.

And actually, I'd rather read advice about offers from people here, who are fairly likely to want the same sort of stuff as me, than plough through a website containing all offers, most of which I won't be interested in.

In most supermarkets Hardies Crest is 8.99 a bottle, but sometimes comes in at bogof, which is when I used to buy it when it was 7.99 a bottle. Except for a very occasional special occasion bottle, 4 quid is just about my limit. And spending 4 quid on an 8 quid wine on a bogof generally gets you much better wine than the bottom end 3 quid a bottle wine.

This, though, was 3 for a tenner, less the discount for buying 6 bottles, which worked out to under 2.90 a bottle.

Pretty damn good

I took the last 6 bottles of Hardy's Crest off the shelves this morning, and went down for 6 bottles of Kumala Zenith (also 3 for a tenner) this afternoon.

On asking, I find there will be more Hardy's in this evening, so I will trundle down for another half dozen then.

It don't go off, and I will drink it, so it seems silly not to grab it while it's there.
