Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar...

Hi Monty,

Just finished reading your article on Red Wine pairing and thoroughly enjoyed it.

I just wanted to recommend a bottle to you (it may be well below your standard but has proved a surprisingly good wine)

Albali Gran Reserva 2004 (Tempranillo) – Can be found on special offer for as little as ?5 a bottle.

I have been enjoying it a lot with Monte No. 5’s and look forward to trying it with many more.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks Adam, great feedback. Believe me, not a lot is 'way below my standard' I will search for this one, to help us out, where can you find it?
It does seem as if Tempranillo often hits the mark with cigars...

Best,
