    One question, how do you know whether wine is sweet, medium or dry. Obviously its on the label normally, but on that site it has great blurbs about where the wine is from, but doesn't tell you the sweetness, unless I missed it!!!

    Hi,

    Virgin wines have a different way of classifying their wines. Rather than using sweet, medium or dry they list a style of wine. You can usually find this just above the title of each wine on their website e.g. fragrant but dry white, soft and juicy red, clean and crisp white, etc.

    :beer:
  • The code everyone seems to be using adds to your "wine bank balance" and most of the reduced wines state that they cannot be bought using this wine bank balance. I have done the necessary and got my basket to £17 ish for 12 bottles, so will the honour the code? Am I using the right code? Help

    Seems to be working OK so far...
    Must be a glitch on their system that allows the order to go through.

    Yes but it doesn't really help in the case of rose wine, as they only have one category! :p

    Fantastic. Thanks very much. I love this site, but it's costing me a fortune, saving all this money.
  • Will check soon as poss but when i log on to Virgin wines it says 'charged £16.87)

    Edit: the chap in this thread got it for the right price i believe..

    I did it :j 12 bottles of wine for about £1.50 a bottle!

    And if you deduct the £5.99 delivery from your total, the actual win costs less than 91p a bottle :eek:

    Yeah, you're right! Rosé is rosé - what more do you need to know? :p
