    Has anybody had this before? What's it like? It's the house wine we are having at our wedding and I want to know if it's nice.

    Its nothing special, typical house wine the sav/blanc and cab/sav are the best nice and fruity ideal for a wedding. How much are they charging?

    Nothing wrong with that seems to be from €18 - €22 in restaurants, but you know what hotels are like. Have ye had a tasting yet? im sure they will give ye a bottle.

    Nope, not a sniff of the wine yet. We'll probably get a bottle ourselves and try it out. Thanks for the info.

    It is a wine by Carmen which is supplied only to restaurants and hotels. This is a policy designed to avoid price comparisons with retail outlets allowing the restaurants / hotels to charge higher margins. It is worth about €9 retail but there are a lot of better wines at this price. If you can get a corkage rate of €13 or less you may be better to source your own wine retail to get a much better price / quality ratio.
