Asda ES Shiraz (Syrah)

This is a south of France number from near Carcasonne,

My overall description is going to be similar to that of the Chardonnay, not exiting but good quality.  There isn't much pizazz here but decent finesse.  We thought that maybe this was a little less baked than we might have expected from here.

I was contemplating about this, what does a supermarket's own brand extra special/taste the difference/finest need to do?  I think that it needs to play safe, be typical, a good example, but nothing too special......go figure, maybe I am wrong.

>I would buy this Syrah again without thinking twice, good weekday wine and a good example of the above characteristics.
