Tronquoy-Lalande 2004 St Estephe - Tesco

An OK wine, but not really a buy at this price (unlike the immaculate 2003)

This has complexity and some style, quite a heavy dose of salinity which may or may not be your thing, and lacks concentration by way of comparison to the superb 2003. No surprise there, 2003 was a legenday vintage for St Estephe. But in the supermarket, the prices are the same, whatever the vintage. And I can't really recommend this for the tariff.
