We opened a magnum of the 2010 Lady May at a rather late Christmas dinner for some old friends. A wine thats 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot, had 24 months in new French oak may not be quite right with turkey but I don’t think the turkey minded!

Aromas of black plum, chocolate and toffee. There’s additional flavours of blackcurrant and hints of red fruit and black pepper. It has good length and rather dry on the finish, sip don’t gulp. The big issue, if I was to buy this is at £30 per standard bottle was that its over priced. £15+ is more like it.
