Heavy tannins. Surprisingly light in colour for a merlot. Peppery and creamy.

I really did not like this wine at all - maybe I had been spoilt by an amazing red the night before - but it found it quite harsh and just not very nice!

With cashback, this is in effect £8 and as such represents good value for me. I would regard it as a little dear at £12.

I am predisposed towards the dry tannic style and can happily drink it on its own, but it is at its best with food.

It has a good deal of richness and flavour with a decent finish: a good wine, an enjoyable drink and well worth £8.

Poor chap was sampled after we had just finished a bottle of Chateau Grand-Puy-Lacoste, 2004. Both decanted for a couple of hours prior to drinkning. Thought to be rather acidic. We were trying to like it but failed.
