    Hubby tried the Ken Forrester chenin blanc last night and said it was excellent.
    I am not suprised as it is 13.5% proof!!!

    It's in the 2 for £10 - it's Chilean. It's not online that I could see either - some of them aren't which is why I've been going in store. Trying to do an online order now but having issues with the £15 off code. Has anyone else managed to use it more than once with different emails?

    Thought it was just me looking but not seeing! If you are a Sav Blanc lady, how does it compare to a Marlborough? At the moment, I'm getting Brancott and the JTD from TPG.

    I don't know I haven't tried it! But I have had other good chilean ones in the past which have been very comparable. My dad is a bit of a buff and thinks it is very good too. I'll stick a bottle in the freezer and have a little taste in a bit and report back! What's the Brancott? not tried that

    Edit: Just opened it for a sniff as it's a screw top and it smells as good as any Marlborough I've tried - can't wait to try a mouthfull now and if it's as good as I think it is going to be, I may well be going back to Mr T's -oh sod it, just tried a mouthfull and even unchilled it's gorgeous! Def going back for more - I have a £50 gift card from the Life Ins thingy - was going to save it for Xmas but I think this is a very good cause!!

    Thanks. It is a New Zealand Sav Blanc from the Marlborough region. Very fruity (citrusy and grassy) and dry. Just the way I like it! I think it's from the Villa Maria house, as during DTD with A's, T compared it to Villa Maria or Brancott. At the time, if I remember correctly, I was being paid to buy it as A had it on a brilliant offer - not the nearly £10 mark that T did!
