TAKE NOTE of the YEAR 2018 VERY GOOD 2019 POOR

3 stars

Sadly, the title I have used says it all, When first offered the wine year was 2018, I enjoyed it's full, soft quality . The 2019 is sadly lacking and only worth the price when bought with £2 off the retail price BEFORE the 25% promotion price !! ONLY BUY THE 2018 YEAR I am normally a great fan of the offers made by TESCOS.

Very drinkable

5 stars

Very good value. A decent wine for the price.

Deserves more than a rating of 3.4. It's a favour

4 stars

Deserves more than a rating of 3.4. It's a favourite of mine

A good wine; try it!

4 stars

The aggressively negative reviews for this wine, are frankly, preposterous. This wine, is a very honest, good tasting and drinkable red wine, for the price, enough said.

Very Rough Wine

Tastes like a wine at half the price. Don't waste your money.

Can recommend for a cheap after work glass

Review from tesco.com

I don't usually drink cabernet-sauvignon I'm a Bordeaux / Merlot drinker as I find CS to be a tad too sharp, but this is really very nice. Has the CS sharp but its not overpowering. Smooth enough to drink on its own. I can't taste the wood which is a bit of a downside but all round not a bad bottle of wine for relaxing on a Friday night after work.

Nice well bodied wune

A really dreadful wine - don't buy it. Virtually undrinkable.

Splendid

Review from tesco.com

A lovely wine for its recent vintage, having many tasteful and fragrant characteristics. A very good complement to most foods.

Hoped for more

2 stars

Review from tesco.com

A promising start with a beautifully smooth and fruity nose, just laced with a dash of pepper. On the mouth are notes of plum, coupled with a medium body. However, the finish was rather curt and left an unappealing vinegary sensation in the mouth. Better value Bordeaux elsewhere.
