I could simply repeat what I wrote about the previous vintage of this wine. A humble, cheap little wine, but expressive and delicious, I love it.

Vylyan Macska Portugieser 2022, Villány, Hungary
Supermarket wines: Pierre Chanau Brouilly 2020
Supermarket wines: Léo de la Gaffeliére Bordeaux 2016
A bit more than 6 years old and this little Bordeaux red is in a great form. That’s not common from such relatively cheap wines from other wine regions…
Supermarket wines: Lidl’s Corte Alle Mura Chianti Riserva 2018
Such a reliable wine. Although the 2019 is already released, this 2018 might still be around, and it’s well worth the asking price.
Supermarket wines: Chateau Teleki Villányi Franc 2017
Such a classic Hungarian red. Widely distributed in the country, you can find it in many supermarkets, and I remember tasting it from the early 2000s. But I’m quite sure it was already made in 1997 – that would not be long history in France, but it is in Hungary.Supermarket wines: Pierre Chanau Cotes de Bourg 2020
Yet one another superb everyday Bordeaux from Auchan. Probably no surprise that it’s a Cotes de Bourg, that appellation offers so much for little money.Supermarket wines – Pierre Chanau Macon Red 2019
Some of the everyday wines I recently bought in Auchan weren’t that good (Versant Royal 2019, a Bordeaux Superior, declining, and the Pierre Chanau Cotes du Rhone Vieilles Vignes 2020 too green and raw), but their range is still quite reliable. I enjoyed this Macon, too. Burgundy wines are hardly as cheap as this nowadays, yet it’s far better than just acceptable.
Supermarket wines – Lidl’s Corte alle Mura Chianti Riserva 2019
New label for Lidl’s chianti riserva, and the style has changed, too. The wine is still good…
Supermarket wines – Lidl Médoc 2020
What a bargain. The only issue is that it’s just periodically available, as it’s often the case with Lidl…
