Started drinking it since i work in an off-license and don't know about them, anyone recomend a nice one, so far the nicest i've come across is
Jindalee Cab sauv
I keep getting plaster now on nights out, a bottle of red before i go out sets me off alittle too well.

I dont drink it that often, my mum and dad are well into their wines and this is a new one they have just started drinking. They order it by the case (12 bottles) and is about £15-20 a bottle I think, although there are loads of different versions of it depending on where and when it was exactly made.
If you go to any of the large wine merchants, they will have tasting evenings where you can sample loads of them, thats the best way to find one you like.

Penfold's Rawsons Retreat Shiraz-Cab is pretty nice, the Radcliffe's Riojas from Threshers are also very good. If you want something light and easy drinking then Beaujolais is good too, but i dont have it that often.

Merlot is the type of grape used They don't all taste the same as they are from different countries, grown in different climates and produced in different ways.
We sell that Penflods rawson retreat where i work, thinl its 7-8 quid a pop though. My limit is a fiver! 4.50 for Jindalee and thats spot on, nice a fruity.
