Whoah yeah? Yesterday you were claiming to be a misunderstood philanthropist.....
Today you just sound pissed (off).....
Oh, and whine in Dubai?
a) A lot of the stock is not transported or stored correctly and does not taste the same as the same bottle in Europe
b) It is hugely over-priced (180dhs/bottle for Jacob's Creek????)

Re: Decent Wine in Dubai?
it's had that image for a while now...fashionwise it always has had a good reputation, I know a lot of people that went there to shop, rather than in Holland (or Germany god forbid)...

I've always found Brussels to be a very cool place. Have a few friends who live there and they love it.

My favourites were Bruges in Belgium and Delph in Holland..they also looked similar with lots of great cafes along the small canals.

I've not tried this place but I think it is called ''Cru'' and its located in Souk Al Bahar in Downtown Burj Dubai. From glancing indoors (and by the name association) it looks like a good bet for a wide selection of vin.

Re: Decent Wine in Dubai?
Ended up in the Academy Madinat Souk finally but bit was it damn expensive.......
Bill for four of us came to nearly 1900 dirham and we weren't even on the expensive stuff
Think I'll be looking elsewhere for my vino fix next time ...or simply stick to beer!
