Bright and crisp? How about almost tasteless? After all the hype on wine.woot and here, expected something much much better. Slightly flavored alcoholic water. Forgettable. This would be a nice, innocuous liquid to serve to people who were afraid of wine, but wanted something other than chilled water. They wouldn't even notice it. I give it an 'average' rating because it did not offend: just wasn't anything there.
I usually don't post many public notes, but this wine just rubbed me the wrong way (a total vacuum of flavor), and I thought I might save someone a few bucks they could spend experimenting with something else.
LOL, sounds kind of harsh, but honest!

A little past it's prime. It has a nice structure and a nice nose. I wish I would have had this six months ago.

Nearing the end of its life. Very tropical, but disjointed.

I continue to enjoy this, the 10th bottle of the case. It's not pretentious, but always pleasing.
