We were disappointed with our first few bottles of this, but having got to the last bottle, it finally seems to be ready to drink. It's a good supper wine - we had it with chilli cor carne. Plenty of blackcurrant fruit on the nose, with caramel and chocolate notes and a minerally finish. It's never going to be outstanding, but good value for money. And remember it gets better with a couple of years ageing. Liz gave this the pleasure rating of 78.
