A big, bold, red berry Pauilliac. Really delicious but I think it would stand a bit more ageing to soften some of those big tannins. Was drinking well but has more potential! — 9 years ago

Amazing value £20 plus 25% off at the moment. A nice example that is balanced and exhibits all the notes you can expect. It's not as complex as more expensive wines naturally and also has a shorter finish but at this price, it's very good indeed. — 9 years ago

Absolutely stunning! Perhaps a bit more Cabernet than many right bank blends but so rich, warm and rounded - all the best Merlot has to offer with the perfect balance of the slight added cedar and tannin from some cab. Wish I could get more - this was the last 2005 and i feel lucky! — 9 years ago

My favourite wine! This doesn't disappoint although there are vintages that appeal more to me and this would have benefitted a few more years in the cellar! Still, liquid pleasure!

Boring! Nice. No distinguishing features, just a well balanced boring claret. — 9 years ago

Exceptional value at around £10 per bottle. Nice Bordeaux style although not a massive finish. — 9 years ago
