It's not worth the glass bottle it's in!

This review is for the 2011 vintage

I'm sure I have tried this wine before and it was not so hideous! I am hoping its just a bad bottle but I can not bring myself to open the other five I bought. I should remember never to gamble especially when it comes to wine! I'm just asking my husband to try it now..... Yip it's as I expected his expert opinion was "oh yuk"!, yes not yuck!!

Not a wine that can be slurped.

Bought this wine for a charity event, to go with a curry lunch but it didn't work. Much too dry for most tastes, especially when someone discovered the Chablis. We had bought a case of the Frascati online plus another 3 from the store and had to bring 6 bottles home. I've been giving it away to unsuspecting associates.

It is exactly what it says in the description: A light, dry. refreshing and fragrant wine, which has flavours of apple, ripe pears and citrus. So it's one of my affordable favourites which I happily to everyone!

Consistently good wine, full of flavour, light enough without being insipid, full enough to provide flavour. A firm favourite in our house

I FIND THIS EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY FOR A CRISP AND DRY WHITE WINE, WHICH DOES NOT HAVE THE FISSY ACIDITY OF SOME OTHER WHITE WINES IN THE SAME PRICE BAND
