My fellow Chardy lovers, listen up. I was recently sent this sample (thank you) of the the Bay of Fires 2019 Chardonnay from Tassie and it’s bloody delicious!
Who’s loving all these online tastings? I most definitely am! I had baby TC in April, therefore I wasn’t planning on going out much anyway + I live rural so I definitely don’t get the chance to go to in-person tastings these days.
It’s rosé and salad season again. We’re having some nice weather at the moment here in regional VIC (it’s going to be 29 here today) so last night Mr Spittoon made my current favourite salad recipe (a steak and potato Weight Watchers recipe) and I cracked a bottle of rosé to match.
Lush. Absolutely lush explains this Chenin Blanc. It’s a variety that’s hot, hot, hot right now. But you want it chilled. In fact this Thursday the Australian Chenin Blanc Challenge is taking place in Perth FYI.
Riesling & Calasparra rice-crusted sardines with green beans and chorizo (recipe courtesy of Chef Miguel Maestre) – how does that sound? I do love a good wine and food combo. In fact I mostly choose what to drink and then I base what I’m going to cook/order off that. Does anyone else do that?
Jane Brook Estate Wines in Perth’s Swan Valley have just released their new Plain Jane Rosé and have kindly sent Mr Spittoon and I a sample bottle to taste (thank you!).
Hands up if you love your fizz. I’m a bubbles girl through and through, there’s no doubt about that! Which is why I was super excited to receive a sample of Versus by Amelia & Trent Burge bubbles recently (thank you!).
Please note: I was kindly sent a Coravin Model 6 to product test by the team at Coravin and Tide PR. Thank you so much! Some links in this post are affiliate links which means if you click through and purchase, I might receive a small amount of commission. I’m seriously wine geeking out right…
