I am a secondary teacher of English in Southern Spain. I studied MFL in Jaén and I got a DPSI certificate in Law in England. I started my teaching career in Newcastle back in 2000, where I lived for 3 years. Once I returned home, I taught in a public school and got ready to sit the "oposiciones" exam, which I passed!!! Currently, I am teaching in Spain, which has become my definite residence in since 2004.

"Vino Peleón" = Fighting wine*

This is our "funny" colloquial way of  calling a cheap wine. We usually use it to cook or to mix with other drinks and make calimocho or sangría. For obvious reasons, a not very good quality is needed. It can also be referred to in a more polite way as "vino de mesa", but yes... it is another euphemism :D
"No compreis vino peleón, que luego nos duele la cabeza"
"El calimocho/ La sangría se hace con vino peleón. Ni se te ocurra gastar vino del bueno"
"El vino peleón deja los labios manchados"
