  The antithesis of my tastes - high alcohol (15.5%), soft, sweet, full on, modern, no tannins, no acidity. But ... but.... but..... this is a wine that grows on you. I'm drinking it now and want more. This has a beguiling nose - sweet fruit, roses, violets, plums, charcoal. in the mouth there are zero tannins, zero acidity - just full on sweet fruit - it is almost like drinking a fruit juice. But ..... but ..... but ...... this is a wine to drink when you dont want to be challenged. The best description I can think of is that this is a wine that you would give to a non-wine drinker to get them into better wines. Non challenging, straight forward. I wouldn't buy this wine again for myself but I might buy it for my dad whose idea of fine wine is anything over £3.99.

  Beautifully soft - even though 15.5%. Full of red fruit. Fantastic wine.
