Is it any good?
Vivino's drinkers give it 3.7 out of 5 from 5,106 ratings (see it on Vivino). Most supermarket wine lands between 3.4 and 4.0, and 3.8 or more is a good sign at any price. Shoppers who reviewed it on the supermarkets' own sites average 4.7 from 27 reviews, but shop reviews run high for almost every wine.
