IWSC Trophy winner for white wine under £6. If you've had Black Cottage MSB from Majestic then you'll know the flavour of this. Dry, balanced and very flavoursome. Staggering value for money. I just can't describe the flavour. Sileni the Straits MSB and Flagstone Free Run SA are also very similar.   I nearly didn't bother cos Villa Maria Private Bin 2013 won the under £10 trophy. |

The wine has become quite golden but the acidity is still quite high. This could be lush and really lovely in a year. This is a good find. Ba is quiet but he's probably into his third bottle. |

Unfortunately their 'wine-by-the-case' site won't give a delivery day yet alone 2 hr slot. Then their 'by-the-bottle' within groceries only have a smaller selection. Can I steel myself to enter one of the Asda dreadful stores? Ear plugs + ear defenders + welly boots needed. Like the sound of this though so might have to man up and brave the awfulness. |

Tried one on Friday having finished VMCS 2013 It ain't half bad for the price. There was something a little grapeier about this giving it a very slight schloer note. I like schloer so wasn't a problem for me Left on the fridge since Friday so I'll be trying it again later Jacobs creek reserve Riesling was also on offer for £6 at the time but I didn't pick any up |

I drove past an Asda on Saturday and thought about turning in to get the Koru, then I saw the heaving masses of near naked, badly tattooed Shreks shuffling towards the main entrance and decided to keep going. |

That's brilliant. Paints a vivid picture. They are more Zombie-like around here, but that is close enough.
