Very quaffible!
Yes, I recommend this
Lovely Merlot without being too heavy, very nice rounded taste with a slight tart hint but not at all over powering. Also cooks well, especially over fillet steak.

bad buy
No, I don't recommend this
Very disappointed with this, my first online purchase,for two reasons. 1) I just did not like anything about the wine, apart from the reduced price. It did not live up to the write-up. It was for me very acidic. 2) When I ordered I did not realise that I could not return if not satisfied. This has to be a negative as other online wine sites do give this facility. Because of this I will not be ordering again.
