Two discounted French wines to pick up in the sale
Two wines from O'Briens this week, both of which are in its French Wine Sale.
Touraine is in the Loire Valley and can be a source of great value wines. It won't appear on the label, but sauvignon blanc is also used to make Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé, two of the better-known names in the region. The Château La Rose du Pin is a classic Bordeaux blend of merlot and cabernet sauvignon. It punches way above its weight and would make a nice addition to your next dinner party.
Château de Quincay Touraine Sauvignon
13% abv, €14.95 (down from €18.95)
Lightly aromatic with elegant green fruits, citrus zest and a nice long finish. Drink by itself, with fresh goat's cheese or Asian seafood dishes.
