Community Tasting Note

Phenol73 Does not like this wine:

Friday, September 4, 2015 - Decent vintage, superb house, yet a bland wine utterly devoid of character and drinking pleasure. Despite its "second wine" status, this should come from a pedigree and a vintage which should offer some elegance, some sense of its breeding. Instead, La Dame has an insipid, boring character, not uncommonly found stuffing the cheap seats in supermarket shelves and giving pleasure to those on tacky hen parties. It is not a "bad" wine, but it is also not something you should pay more than £10 for. For Montrose to put its name on this garble, and for it to be sold in serious wine merchants at a price where one can enjoy decent Burgundy or Brunello or Barolo or Priorat, is an exercise in Bordelaise pompousity. I poured it down the drain.
