I’ve been working my way through the Tesco ‘finest’ range for the last few months and am reaching the conclusion that they are generally very good; a well thought out, appealing range of wines from decent producers at reasonable prices.

Tasting notes: Gaillac is from the South West of France. Crisp, fresh flavours of citrus, it has that delicate effervescence that puts it in a similar category as Picpoul de Pinet, and zingy muscadets.
