Bankers’ bonuses are back up to what they were, and no doubt they are once again buying Pétrus, Mouton Rothschild, Le Pin and so forth at several thousand pounds a bottle. More fool them. At The Spectator Wine Club we can offer first-rate wines for much less than those absurd, show-off, Russian oligarch prices. The wines are not quite as scrummy, perhaps, but on a value-for-money scale they are probably 150 times better. These are wines which will bring you real pleasure at very moderate cost.
