"sweet taste of a bargain"The internet is a wonderful thing. You could find some surprising bargains sometimes. We found this wine in the online bargain bin and thought tonight is as good as any time to try it.
We were mildly surprised. It has a lovely sweet savoury nose. The texture is very dry and dusty from the oak, there are flavours of fennel, cassia and nutmeg. It is a medium bodied wine and lacks a little bit of length. But considering it cost us AUD 7.00 per bottle, who's complaining?
The price is not reflective of its true value as it was an export wine bound for the UK prior to Palandri going into receivership. Current price and availability is unknown, but I'd have been happy to pay around AUD 15.00 for it.
It is nice to know you can still find a nice pleasant bargain now and then......
