About the wine
.
- In the film 'Sideways', Merlot gets a bad rap. This cheeky 'ickle number should pretty much prove any sceptic (US citizens included) of the folly that such idle talk can be. This is a bundle of ripe, cherry and redcurrant joy.
- Angel sponsored, it's cracking value. You may think we've gone mad, but trust us, we haven't. We're teetering on the edge mind you...
- When you pop the cork on this, you need to make sure you are accidentally in the vicinity of a humongous leg of slow roasted lamb, preferably with a roast potato or ten.
