No, but I can share my tasting note:

 

Attacks the palate with an almost shocking directness.  Stingy at the back end though.  Finishes well clear.  Leaves that subtle earthy hint of Fox droppings for north London palates.

An amazing year from this humble provincial winery.

 

FOOD MATCH: pair with two bags of Walkers Salt & Victory crisps, which may make you Drinkwater.

Does anybody know if this stuff is still available to purchase?

Can't see it on the club shop website.

Reading the press release on the link suggests King Power were left with a load of crates they couldn't shift in their duty free outlets suffering the covid related effects of reduced international travel.

 

I wonder if the price is the usual club shop mark up or if it has been discounted. At £15 a bottle I suspect the former!

The blurb is full of fluff but scant on actual details. I think you can just make out on the bottle that it is an AOC Bordeaux Supérieur - in which case, £15 is very reasonable for a decent bottle of the stuff.
