This is the 2nd bottle of this wine, the first was last thanksgiving. Just like last year, upon opening its skightly FIZZY, and the taste is a bit cider. On the outre side even for me . So. ....and this is why patience works out sometimes with these wines...I recorked, shook very vigorously to let out gas, un corked, did this twice put in fridge.
Next day, way calmer, but still something on palate I didn't like. Shook let more gas out,.put back in fridge, day 3...!!! viola, wine still and the cider turned into a lovely Minerally Chardonnay.,..gorgeous.
My advice wait on this wine or decant.overnight.
