In 562 stores
Definitely Semillon on the nose, but quite floral. Tangy, pithy flavour. This is one of my house wines normally, when reduced in price, but actually the Peter Lehmann Barossa Semillon is only £5.99 and is better.

No, that's fair enough. I wonder if it was a Tesco typo.

Thanks.

That's not pedantic, it's helpful.

I'm sticking up for the pedant. Can't stand bullying of minorities.

When the Denman is £5.00 vs Lehmann at £5.99 which is better value?

I've had the Lehmann 2005 before and like it a lot, when it first appeared on the shelves there was nothing to it but it seemed to improve dramatically in the bottle in the last year.

God question Wiz, Im drinking the Denman now, second night in and its holding firm. Both are immediately enjoyable, at a pound less I would go for the Denman, at the same cost? toughy, is the '05 PL improving?
