Perfect as an aperitif at a barbecue!! I picked up a bottle to try, and a 6-pack should be on its way...

Perfect for an aperitif, but less fruity than in previous years, which is a bit of a letdown

Unbeatable value for money. The Classic vintage is a very fruity wine that’s perfect as an aperitif. It also pairs wonderfully with fish, such as salmon en papillote.
