De Bortoli Premium Reserve Verdelho NA

Made by De Bortoli in Australia.

A dry, still, white wine with 13.5% alcohol tasted on 29th Aug 2009.

Grape: Verdelho

Quality: Okay

Value: Good

Cost: Usually between $14.99 - $16.99.

Looks: Pale gold colour, light to medium body

Smells: Fresh, fruit salad

Feels: Medium bodied

Tastes: This really is a good idea - Verdelho is very well suited to a cask/mass produced style. And this is done very well - good balance of sweet grapey fruit with an even acidity that makes it drinkable. Simple yes, but very drinkable for the money.
