A bit one dimensional but velvety smooth and a pleasant typical cherry flavour. Good value to wash down any tomato based pasta dish.

Hey tribs - Do you not suspect a twerp, as a total idiot, who gives a very affordable red, a 10 out of 10 :wink:

Wizz says good to wash down Italian - which is far more realistic. But for sure, please say how it is with Pasta & Lasagna. I might even .....

Cheers Wizz

They're not proper marks, but I'm guessing you know that. Have 2 in hand now. Will try at weekend.

2007 - this wine seems to improve the longer it remains on Tesco's shelves, the 2007 has been around for a while now.

Tried this with Spag bol. It wasn't quite up to it.

Nice on its own though. A mix of cherry and blueberry. Very noticeable blueberry for me, which I found appealing. Very spicy on opening but after a couple of days this had gone, which is the case with most wines. Nice herbal notes. Pretty good for the price and could probably go on for a good while longer.
