I know this episode is old school and you may not ever see this comment Gary, but I say you take this opportunity to taste the 2006 Turnbull Cab Sauv. I just had it very recently, and it was delicious. It was the first time I had a Turnbull wine. CG gave the 2006 vintage a 91 I think, or maybe even a 92. Think about it GV.

Just had a Tolva (Maule Valley, Chile) Cab-Merlot 2006, it cost £4.80 (£3.80 after case discount), it had a handful of balanced flavours- blackcurrant, mocha, green pepper and was silky smooth. For the price unbelievable. I find the cabs with green pepper to be better with food, but i’m more of a red wine by itself at the moment leaning towards new world, but i’m sure my sweet tooth will begin to dissipate!

I feel that I’m early on in the ladder, but I’m way past the point where cabernet is the only thing I’ll drink. For me, the challenge is to find a good cabernet at a price I can afford to drink regularly. Forty bones is not something I’ll drink every day, or even every week. I’m seeking $40 cab in a $15-25 bottle to go with a weekly grill. Feel free to suggest something….
