The oversized bottle suggests this will be an oversized wine. But it’s not. Rather, mineral-y, savory flavors balance its ripe fruitiness. A suave texture adds to its appeal. Wonderful acidity keeps it fresh and amplifies its charms. A hint of sweetness appears in the finish. In short, it’s a New World-styled wine with freshness. And a great value!
