    out of the wine list - I'm not a wine drinker hence why I have no idea, I am looking for some sort of white wine or a pinot that's cheap or cheapest and is OK not horrid lol for a couple of birthdays - ty I keep looking at the lists but I've no clue!!

    Now if it was mulled wine I would be all over it lol, I can't stand red wine either!!
    Good morning Sarah in my opinion the villa maria or the brancott estate are the nicest wine but then I'm a sauvignon fan I would certainly be impressed with either of those as a present.
