LadyG Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) Buy a four pack Bramley Apple and Cinamon Hot Cross Buns, add butter and pour two glasses of Gallo Merlot. You need a paper towel as it is like a hands on sticky pudding, but better. I won't manage more than two!

Machpoint005 Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Sounds good, but I'd go for a Chilean or Argentinian Merlot. The Californian version is a bit bland to my palate. But hey, what do I know, I'm a beer drnker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty40s Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 I dont do Gallo anymore as I always woke up thinking I had left a sanding pad on my tongue from yesterdays painting. If the Californians learn to make wine without all their additives, I will gladly imbibe to support their fragile economy.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharpness Posted February 13, 2020 Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 The Tesco buns are pretty good too but best of all are the M&S mini ones, 9 in a pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
