I know very little about Italian wines.
As there's a Lidl a few miles away, I thought I ought to see what was in the drinks aisle.
Of their run of the mill wines, their buyer rated this highest. So thinking I ought to live dangerously
for once, I bought a couple of bottles. At £5.99 each. I know this price point is dangerous territory, so
I wasn't expecting much.
However, I have to say I was quite pleased. Decent quaffing wine, with a meaty main and/or cheese.
Forgot to let it breathe, so the second bottle will taste better, no doubt. Bit of a dry finish, which I'm
not a fan of. However, the overall effect is a very mellow, medium to full bodied wine that easily holds
its own with a spicy bolognese sauce, but without being over powering.
Strikes me as being very good value.
