De Bortoli La Bossa Merlot 2010
Ultra twiggy and simple but does provide a nice amount of pluminess which allows me to move forward. Really at this price point, all I am looking for in a wine is drinkability with flavours that are easy to follow with a nice balance between sweetness and savouriness. The wine even has a sourness to the tannin structure that works well with food. All in all, a nice wine to quaff down.

De Bortoli La Bossa Pinot Grigio 2011
Masses of sweet candied apples cascade from the glass from the word go. You remember the ones that you used to get at the show? They were bright red with a thick layer of candy hugging the apple with delight. I would spend the whole day licking that lovely crust off before I bite down on the slightly overripe apple that they inside.
