May 6, 2010 - Full bodies, dark burnt cherries to taste, colour is turning coppery. Bacon fat and smoky wood on the nose. Quite dusty to taste, dry and quite tannic. Good value on sale at £5.

May 3, 2010 - Nice, dusty smoky flavours, red cherry fruit and some bacon. Quite dry on the finish, but good value and quite interesting.

October 31, 2009 - well balanced and very drinkable. Not much complexity. Not disappointing.

May 16, 2009 - Mum's 70th birthday - a la Tesco Finest! (Mum and Dad's, UK): Lovely! Wonderful balance of red fruit and acidity. Probably not one to age too long but the best wine tonight
