What are you drinking tonight?

On my second bottle. Now this is nice. On offer for £8 at the moment. Glad I bought 4 bottles now. Can’t see them lasting until tomorrow. Fully recommend.

Do you like Spanish Rioja? I used to love a nice Reserva. I don't drink anymore, though.
Yes I do, but this is one of the nicest I have had. normally 1 bottle is enough for me and the wife will only have a few glasses. We are both on our second bottle now it is that nice

One of the interesting things about Rioja is that, even though it has a strong and distinct flavour, the Tempranillo grape it is made from doesn't actually have a strong taste. Most of the flavour comes from the barrels.

same as whiskey, I think the barrels are used until they drop to bits for that reason.
