Expert Opinion

In the press...

Of the 2011 vintage, Jamie Goode said: “I wish all cheap Chianti could be like this. It’s bright and fresh with plenty of cherry and plum fruit. A well balanced and food-friendly wine.”

Jamie Goode - S Magazine (Sunday Express) 09/12/2012

Very good wine but unfortunately I received only..

Very good wine but unfortunately I received only half of what I ordered. The rest was replaced by Corbieres. It was not fair and it will make me think twice when I am ordering from Tesco again.
