Chateau Pey La Tour 2009 - Tesco

I had heard descriptions of the 2009, with some comparing the wines to Australian shiraz. But I didn't take them literally until now.

Quite reductive and very heavy going, this wine is barely recognisable as Bordeaux, I would have mistaken it for an overpowered supermarket Australian Cabernet lacking balance and refinement.

So for me, not very drinkable. I can see how some might quite like it though...

Chateau Pey La Tour 2009 - Tesco £7.49, 5/10.
