Grand Vin de Bordeaux - Saturday, 27 Sept.


I picked up a bottle of 2005 Château Malromé at Monoprix (the discount “everything” store around the corner) this morning - it had a typical Bordeaux blend, and sported a silver medal award sticker from "2007 Challenge International du Vin." It was on a special promotion shelf - I thought the label said 9.95€ (about $15), so I figured - hey, I can't go wrong. So tonight I'm drinking it (it's pretty decent) while munching on some bread, sausage and cheese and entering today’s purchases into my little spreadsheet, only to discover that I paid 4.95€ for it. I was right - I couldn't go wrong! I love it here!
