A wee BloodyPulpit:
1. It was quite clear when I poured this wine that it'd been "refreshed" w/ CO2. This is a technique that the wine has added CO2 just before bottling and give it a freshness and sense of acidity on the palate. I find such wines have sort of a fake acidity and not the tangy acidity w/ depth of highly acid wines. It give to me a bit of a vapid character on the palate to me. That was certainly the case w/ this M-T.
