Description

The palate, less so. It flirts with phenolic astringency, and while it’s silly to expect big things from a simple Liter wine, I’d be happier if it were less snippy. Still, such wines aren’t intended for “study” and food will tame the kitten-teeth, as does a warmer temperature.

With ten minutes out of the bottle a mitigating juiciness emerges, but this remains on the crisp side of “crisp” and is adamantly dry.
