Having purchased this wine before and thoroughly enjoyed it (vintage 2011), I was looking forward to drinking it again. Although it was shown as being 2011, when it arrived it was labelled as 2012. The difference was amazing. This batch had no flavour, no body and was quite bland and not very nice to drink. I was quite embarassed when giving it to friends, who like me didn't enjoy it. Unfortunately, I had opened three bottles or I would have sent it back. In the past when I have ordered wine and the delivery has been a different vintage, I have returned it without any problems, but on this occassion, I thought I should not return only 3 bottles. I am now concerned about the accuracy of Tesco descriptions

Well rounded, a very fruity, crisp wine, not too sweet and very easy to drink. Will definately buy again when on offer.
This is a most drinkable wine.

This is one of the best Rose' wines I have tasted. I only wish I had bought more when the discounted price was on. As much as I liked it. So did my friends. Which meant my last order disappeared very quickly. When I visited my local store today, they had run out. Which shows how popular it is.
A lovely wine for any occassion

Not a great wine but fine for a summer time slurp with friends - not that we've had much summer to slurp to! It's quite dry wheras some rose wines can be be a bit cloying. On the whole not bad for the price although I wouldn't want to pay the full price for it.
An excellent Rose

Not fantastic and wouldn't buy it again. It's quite a dark wine but is advertised a pale wine.
