Great middle aged wine out of half that is drinking fine for its level. I would not hold much longer. Acidity seemed a bit high, but overall there was good balance of fruit, herbs, leather and wood notes.

Cardonne generally delivers a good "lunch wine" and this was no exception. Once opened for about 45 minutes the wine found balance with blackberry, cherry skin, floral notes and a bit of pencil. Nothing profound, but for a cheap quaff on Monday night you could do much worse.

Not bad for a wine at the local supermarket. Nice to have open during the weekend. Yet, it's 'flat', not much happening. No unpleasant surprises either. If it was a car: "Opel Astra" (Vauxhall in the UK ).
