Intensely rich and creamy on the nose, reflecting the golden yellow colour in the glass. There's a leesy, cheesy element to the aromas, this is a full and rich wine that would certainly impress your friends with its complexity, and might need some food in order to shine. I'm thinking of a selection of rich dips - hummus, muhammara, baba ganoush, along with crunchy crudités to match the wine's fresh, saline acidity.

Rich, ripe and creamy, moving into the tropical spectrum with pineapple, papaya and nectarine. A full-bodied, serious, smoky style with a salted mango finish. This is always a safe, consistent buy at Tesco.
