hello,

thanks for that Tom.

I'm not sure that is the place, the one we went to was nothing like as smart as that.

However it does look very nice and I think we will give it a visit. What are the wine prices like from the barrel?

Thanks.

Hello,

I know it's like looking for coal in Newcastle ..

We're staying in Urb La Marina next month. We do have an excellent Bodega there that we visit (on the left on the main road as you go south out of town). However, a few years ago, we went out to Aspe (I think it was Aspe) and we came across a place selling wine. Enormous barrels at least 10 feet in diameter that you could fill your own bottles from, plus their own stuff bottled. It was all very nice and very cheap.

Sound familiar to anyone? I'm sure there must be a few places like it, but most seem to have been smartened up, have high prices and not so good wine.

Thanks.

Hello,

Sorry if this in the wrong section, I'm sure there was one for shopping before.

I only get to Spain about once a year and I like to bring some wine back. I can get some excellent stuff from the Bodega, put it in plastic bottles and bring that back, but I don't like to keep it too long as it's already been 'opened'. A couple of years back I found some 3 litre bag in a box of the Castle Liria (sp?) which was good enough quality. They don't sell it at the supermarkets near where we stay any more.

So, does anyone know of anywhere selling reasonable quality wine in boxes?

I'm staying in Urbanisation La Marina about 30 mins south of Alicante. Near san Fulgencio.

Cheers!
