In this case judge a wine by its bottle...

Normally I would tell you not to judge a bottle of wine by its bottle, because the labels can be so misleading. However, I picked this wine for that very reason: Calvet C么tes du Rh么ne Villages 2014 £7 from Tesco, Ocado etc.


Strong brand name, C么tes du Rh么ne Villages is going to be good quality Syrah yet inexpensive, and look at the gorgeous bottle shape, and here the lovely textured neck:


Very pleasing to the eye and touch. And inside? A gorgeous, fruity, zingy red wine with punch (13%)! I drank the lot! Well almost... I couldn't squeeze in the last glass 馃槈

I'm very happy to recommend this wine, and at the price if say to buy half a case. Enjoy!
