Decent eine

Not a bad wine but needs to be allowed to breath for a few hours before dri King. Straight out the bottle definitely a no no. For £6 well worth it.

Good value

I liked the wine. Apprehensive at first because of the £6 price tag (reduced from £8). To my mind it has a nice rounded finish in the mouth and is especially good with blue cheese. The blend of old Portuguese favourites including Touriga gives it an edge. It may not be a challenger to say a Douro but at this price I could drink it all day.
