How about a nice glass of Franco wine?

I saw this bottle at a family friend's house today. He's got quite a decent Rioja cellar and was apparently given two of these some years back. I'm not sure what the origin of the wine is (though I guess it's from some time shortly after the dictator's death) and I didn't ask to taste any. Something tells me it would have upset my tummy.

    Haha classic. I bet that would go down well with a nice glass of Republican dissident.

    I meant "plate" not "glass".

    I bet it leaves a long and bitter aftertaste
