Incidentally - Chateau Despair was one of the eight Grand Cru that were demoted in the 2006 St Emilion Classification but were re-instated after much legal wrangling - full story here.
I was not surprised by this wine - I expected it to be a decent, mid range Bordeaux and thus it was. Nice but unexceptional.
Back on Topic: I'm gonna try and get to Aldi this weekend as it's the only big chain whose wines I haven't tried.
