To early for this wine. Fruit fine, but dummbed down too much. Needs time to open up, so do decant. Immediate impact with the shyrah, and the in of the viognier comes at the finish. Nice balance, needs time even tho the taninns are softish. medium dry finish andmed dry body...tho..opens more.

Not worth the £10, tho not disappointing...better value and qualiy elsewhere for less money and higher in the the same £ bracket.

La Motte Millennium Red 2004 £8.98 Asda

Is this the same wine, but a different vintage?

Very attractive, spicy, herbal smell. Tastes of claret, but riper, without being sweet. Like it.
