August 21, 2022 - Last bottle of 6 and back on form. The 5th bottle wasn’t good but this is back to its best. Good fruit, medium finish, herbs and smokiness. Just great value.

June 25, 2022 - 5th bottle of 6. This one a little thin and weak. Difficult to tell if it’s at the end if it’s drinking window or bottle variation. That said the other 4 have been great and very good value. Shall drink the last bottle sooner rather than later.

February 13, 2022 - Great value for money gem which I bought from the Wine Soc a couple of years ago at a very heart warming £8.50 a bottle.
Dark ruby in colour with likeable chewy, approachable tannins, medium bodied, medium (+) acidity with fresh red plum, blackberry, dark cherry, slightly herbaceous, savoury flavours and a slight pinch of spice.
Could happily revisit this vintage in a year or two as I suspect the wine will generally be even more integrated.
Enjoyable quaffer that will hopefully complement my wife’s spicy chicken fajitas into delicious submission. Recommend!2 people found this helpful Comments (1) -

August 1, 2021 - Flawed. Some TCA, had worse, but the tantalising black fruit on the nose was dominated by it, also on the palate.
Left it overnight and tried again but still lingering. Refunded. -

Dried herbs, bell pepper, black pepper
Dry, med-acid, med-tannin, med alc, med+ length, Med- body. Cherry, plum on finish. More complexity on nose than on palate, can age some more
