Shop in O’Briens a lot but have diversified in recent times. Generally I feel wines are priced realistically at sale time but not otherwise. Too many mediocre wines at €20ish or more. Also selection of French wines is limited - there are much better wines from South Burgundy for example than the ones you have persisted with. With global warming maybe try some of the less famous cote d’ors (eg the Haut Cotes or St Aubin). On the Spanish side far too much Rioja and the only R del D are overpriced and of poor quality. There’s loads more variety in Spain when you go there . Portuguese selection probably the strongest - very good and good value. I don’t drink new world wines - too sweet. Lastly it’s a pity that you don’t have any German red - can be excellent and reasonably priced.
