Mass produced Merlot. Very basic, no depth, not exciting to drink. Pass on this one better ones out there. Tasting Sample.

2006 vintage consumed on 19 May 2021. A great of example of cellaring to perfection. This surprised us. A classic merlot that was ripe and ready. 15 years and maybe had another one or two left.

Sarah says it's sharp and thin - yuk. I say it's sharp, acidic and has no redeeming features. Watch it flow prettily down the drain. £5 Asda.
