Disappointing. Uniform and bland, gave the impression of having come from a huge, generic vat. Power but not with a PN finess or lightness, this would be better compared to a villages Rhone wine. But not as good. At over £11 this was poor qpr, at full price it would be a steal. For the merchant.

Good colour and nose. Nice fruit (some strawberry and raspberry evident) with soft tannins and a little smoke. Good balance and quite a big wine but pretty well controlled. 88/89 (California tasting)

Nose: Strawberries & cream.
Mouth: Red berries, earthy note leads to faint smoked sausage spicy finish (quite short). Dry edge smoothed off with goats cheese.
Not bad.
