Takes me back to basics red wine from my teens

No, I don't recommend this

What a waste of money. The price should reflect the taste and I want my money back. Crap

Simply Sickening

No, I don't recommend this

We got this as a gift as part of a Mother’s Day roast etc. I am shocked that you M&S tolerated this for so long. You should immediately remove all of this from your shelves, destroy and hang your heads in SHAME. DISGUSTING WINE AND DISGUSTING THAT YIU HAVE LEFT THIS DROSS ON YOUR SHELVES TO CATCH SOME COINS... I am absolutely FINISHED BUYING WINES FROM YOU NOW.

Weak & watery

No, I don't recommend this

Was looking forward to having this tonight with a lasagne but it is so disappointing. There is no body whatsoever and little taste. It is a very pale imitation of a Chianti. Not surprised it's no longer available!

Very disappointed

No, I don't recommend this

Bought this as i wanted to try something different and the bottle looks good and feels weighty like a good bottle of wine. I had high hopes and poured a glass to accompany a pasta dish. Unfortunately, it was disappointing on the first taste and didn’t get any better. Expected more. Wont buy again.

Chianti Heaven

Yes, I recommend this

Full of flavour yet smooth on the palate ... was never a huge fan of Chianti until I tried a couple of bottles of these on the off chance ..... this wine is my epiphany!

What Chianti?

No, I don't recommend this

A good Chianti has a unique rich & smooth flavour and this is not it! At first sniff, the bouquet was surprisingly sharp. The bottle was allowed to breath for at least an hour. This wine is too oaked and tart; the worst "Chianti" my wife and I have ever tasted.

disappointing wine

No, I don't recommend this

This wine is poor, very dry, lacking fruit and not as described on the back label as 'rich & harmonious'and at £12.50 a bottle I would expect a much better quality of wine. I will be taking this back for a refund. Very disappointing.
