Wine of the Week: Réserve des Tuguets Madiran 2016, France

Priced at just £6 at Tesco until next week, this 2016 Pyrenees red is a real steal.

The Madiran appellation is situated on the foothills of the famed French mountains, taking earthy notes from its clay-gravel soil.

Blending Tannat, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, it has a rich and full body with aromatic complexity.

Notes of fresh black cherries, liquorice and spice can be found, making for a compelling drink with a very accessible price tag.

Enjoy with foods such as hard cheeses or grilled red meat dishes.
