Tasted 05/07/11 Tesco Finest* Gavi DOC 2010, 8.29, Tesco Sweet, pineapple, greengage - very fruity nose. Definitely on the way to off dry, with very bright and exciting acidity. A lively and easy wine. Good. Tesco Finest* Albariño 2010, 7.79, Tesco Quite a saccharine nose. Tart and energetic acidity. Good, but the Ttd is better. Tesco Finest* Steillage Riesling 2010, 6.79, Tesco Very sweet, floral nose. Sweet, and seems a bit flaccid and almost bitter. I used to love this wine. Tesco Finest* Denbies Estate English White 2010, 8.79, Tesco Not particularly fresh and lively on the nose. Tastes good, though. Bright, sauvignon-like flavours. Assume it's bacchus-based. In fact, it's predominantly ortega and reichenssteiner and only 3% bacchus. Quite likeable taste. |
