Community Tasting Note

• ProfAvi Likes this wine: 90 points

  October 16, 2020 - My local supermarket (Co-op in the UK) pre-covid had this on offer.
  I picked up 5 bottles for £8.50 each (half price)!
  My tasting note is therefore influenced by the amazing QPR.
  P&P.
  Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
  It's young still but so enjoyable for it.
  Cassis, cassis and some more cassis - blackcurrant leaf on the nose and its tart fruit on the palate.
  Noticeable but agreeable tannin.
  But with food the acidity helps make this wine eminently drinkable.
  I happened to have it with burger and chips and the combination was spot on.
  
  For £8.50 it's a bargain.
  But would I buy it for £17?
  
  I'll never know!
