Great concept, but the wine behind it isn't so grand.

Lower alcohol, slightly bubbly, not bad but nothing to rave about.

A fizzy Chardonnay appropriate for drinking while preparing dinner. The unusual bottle form factor makes storage problematic.

Slight aroma of apples. Taste is somewhat dry and pretty effervescent. Pretty short finish. Nice chilled in summer but would have liked a tad less dry.

Unexpectedly bubbly and slightly dry. Got it at Grocery Outlet for $3 and only worth it then. Very basic and tart, almost sour. More prossseco than chard.
