Bottega White Gold (11%)
White 12% ABV ABV BottegaExpected more honestly
Had this with pasta and it was alright. Pleasant enough and easy drinking but I was expecting more complexity given the price tag. The nose is probably the best bit — really draws you in. Just wish the rest lived up to it a bit more.
Decent midweek treat
Not bad at all. Nice balanced acidity and it stays fresh right through to the end. I'm not great at picking out specific flavours but it just tasted really well made if that makes sense. Wouldn't buy it every week at that price but it's a nice one to have now and then.
Really impressed with this
Bought this for a dinner party and it went down really well. Lovely fresh flavours, not too heavy at all which was perfect for a warm evening. Everyone asked what it was. At £22 it's not cheap but I'd definitely get it again for occasions.
Nice but not mindblowing
Solid white wine. Clean and fresh with decent fruit, and I liked that it's not too boozy at 12%. Good with fish and chips weirdly enough. Fair price for what you get.
The bottle alone is gorgeous
My mate got me this for my birthday and I was genuinely surprised how good it is. Really aromatic when you pour it, and it's got this lovely layered thing going on where you keep noticing different flavours. Light enough to drink on its own too.
Good summer wine
Picked this up after seeing it on a restaurant menu and wanting to try it at home. It's crisp and refreshing with a clean finish that makes you want another glass. Would be perfect chilled in the garden.
Bit pricey for what it is
It's fine, perfectly drinkable and goes down easy. But £22 for a white wine that isn't anything super special feels like you're paying for the fancy gold bottle more than the wine itself. I've had better for less.
Absolutely loved this
The wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something a bit different for under £25. So glad he did. It smells amazing and there's proper depth to it, not just another bland white. The finish sticks around too which I always think is a good sign. New favourite.
