This is the best french red wine on the market for £6 period.
I bought half a case from majestic thinking that the £5.99 price tag (after a 20% discount) would reflect its quality.
How wrong i was. This is sensational french wine for £5.99. There is little new world that i have tasted can compete at this price. It drinks very very well with food.
Tried the chapoutier cote de rhone 2007 alongside and the guigal smashed it on all accounts, the chapoutier was about a quid more a bottle and deeper, richer, but the guigal 2005 just drinks beautifully now, without going into all that "how will it be in 3-4 yrs" malarky .
Great great great wine for six quid. Buy it glug it ;)

Even managed to better a a St Cosme Gigondas 2004 on Xmas day...great stuff.
ReplyDeleteYes it is unbeatable at that price. Waitrose currently has it for £6.99 right now, which is almost as good...:-)
