De Bortoli Rococo Blanc de Blanc NV

This wine is perfect for summer as it seems to be a mix between Prosecco and full on Champagne. The packaging is immaculate which will appeal to a large majority of consumers meaning that it has 2 ticks in my book.

There is a creamy mouth-feel to this wine but otherwise it is dry and linear all the way. On the entry the wine is a little bread based or yeast orientated before the grapefruit, peach fuzz and dried lemon rind takes hold. While I really like the flavour of the wine the palate seems to peel off from the mid-palate on. Now here is the kicker...the price is cheap. Seventeen bucks gets you a whole lot of loving in a texture orientated wine.
