I've just been amusing myself reading the tasting notes for some LIDL wines.

Yes I know I need to get out more.

Anyway, one is described as firm, dry and with good length

while another is described as grapey...no,really?

So..if you were a wine what would your tasting notes say?

I'm going to go with robust,rounded and full bodied

A great bottle of Estragon leaves your tastebuds feeling decidedly plummy.

As if that wasn’t enough, Estragon often touches the back of your throat leaving a distinct tingle.

The finish ranges from sweet to savory, depending on the vintage.

St Austell-ish

Full bodied to a bit heavy, with notes of something surprising that brings on a relaxed, giggly mood.

Alternatively:

Indescribable.

SE London

Dry, but with a hint of sunny sweetness, slightly aged but well rounded. The wine surprises with its flavour it develops after the second sip and leaves a nice aftertaste. Best enjoyed with friends in a private place

Full bodied, complex, dry and a little past it’s best!

NB. But not at all bitter!

I imagine you have a biscuity finish

Bitter clown tears with a hint of suspicion.

Great with lobster Thermidor. Best d*unk in the street. Taste guide: Trouser Jazz.

Cherry and chocolate sweet notes with spicy hints. Lingering on your palate long afterwards, slowly releasing all the flavours bouquet.

This red is perhaps an acquired taste. Quiet and unassuming at first with a full bodied middle and a long finish. Slight effervescence means pairing with cheese should be avoided
