Very much so. It needs opening and warming. It isn't oaky and at first seems a bit on the light side. It isn't a merlot or rioja, but it has some subtle style about it. But when I opened the second which was warmer I really liked it. It's poor value at the (I think) £13 or so but at half price it's really great. You need to check it's still on offer.
Let me know how you get on. ps just checked and still on offer - I've added another 20 to my next order. I've read a negative review which says it's rough and tannic - but I'd say the absolute opposite. Meal: Dinner Pork escalopes (using Kellogs Rice Crispies instead of bread for the crumb coating), celeriac mash and Bud Lite. Followed by the leftovers of a afternoon baked plum sponge with creme faiche (sweetened with a little icing sugar and some freshly squeezed lemon juice) Adey PS (trying not to hijack this excellent thread) Thanks UK1 - the Freybernat sounds just the ticket! Will help myself to some of that! |
