Just popped into Sainsbury's to get some Kanonkop Kadette 2009 and saw some 2 for £10 offers of which I bought Villa Maria 2010 NZ SB (£9.49) Roc de Lussac St Emilion (£13.99) |

The Roc de Lussac is usually very tannic and poor quality and much better wines out there for £6-7.00. Is this the 2009 ?? let me know your thoughts. |

14 quid for the Roc de Lussac is absurd. Sains knock 40% off it regularly to move it. Its another one of these Yonne Mau jobbies. The '09 will be much better than past vintages, so, when they knock 40% off and then it's an additional 25% off for six week as well, you can get this wine for £6.30 which is about right. |

wow, what a bargain hunter. Did I make a mistake by not waiting? I didn't think about hanging on for those offers. I just rushed in willy nilly and bought two bottles for £10 instead 
Its the 2009 vintage and I'll have it tonight. |

The Lussac has been a regular half-price phony for years, worth a fiver in a good year. |

Had both. The St Emilion is a decent claret, albeit a trifle young. Villa Maria is a nicely quaffable NZ SB. I could have done with a smidgen more acidity but Mrs Pontac enjoyed it greatly. |
