Adam –
Perhaps my expectations were a little too high, but I had heard good things about the producer and so opened the bottle with much anticipation…some bright fruit and very high acidity made it very fresh, but it was lacking in complexity.
BV do more complex wines at and below this price point. My only thought is whether I just drank it too young and I’d be interested to see what anyone else thinks.
