A beautifully perfumed nose, the nose is heavenly, no cedar, more cinnamon and baked rhubarb. Sweet fruit, berrylike, cool and juicy, ripe but not fat, balanced and sweet, low tannins, suits me.
Morrisons, bought when on offer for £5.99.

Currently reduced to £4.99 in Morrisons, I got the last two '07 in my store, not tried the '08. What you waiting for? |

What you waiting for? Complain ? nah ! Only know the white in Nimes's clothes. Sounds like reasonable heat wave stuff - serve cool as in Jolly Beau then. |

Good luck, Ive not tried the '08, let me know if its up to scratch, Id like to get some more of these. When the French decide to make softer, more approachable wines with concentrated sweet fruit they can be as good as it gets, great value too. Tom sums up the '07 vintage well enough here. |
