Was on offer last week at 20% off so paid £7.99. If you buy 6 on the current offer it'd be £7.49 a bottle

Not to be confused with Dourthe Barrel Select St Emilion 2007 which is the same price.

Softly fruited, light and slightly floral on the nose and good structure similar to La Couronne although not as sweet and ripe. Good and perhaps would suit food better, but I don't think I'll buy more while La Couronne is available.

tribs, I have the other one, the St. Emilion from Dourthe, given to me as part of a present when it was last on offer.

Like you, it could not compete while Couronne is available. Your satelite sounds more structured than the St. Em. was predicted to be. If it is a soft style, I'd better drink it fairly soon with suppers.

Cheers tribs
