Snake + Herring 2018 ‘Corduroy’ Chardonnay
If you love your oaky and super flavoursome Chardonnay’s, then you need to get this Snake + Herring 2018 ‘Corduroy’ Chardonnay from Margaret River in your glass stat.
I was gifted this bottle as part of my media sample Chef Collection pack from Wine Selectors (thank you!). This exciting 6-pack is a collaboration with Chef Miguel Maestre (aka @thecrazybull) so alongside the wines you get a recipe booklet full of Spanish recipes to match the wines.
The matched recipe for this yummy Chardonnay is ‘Caldero Murciano’ – fresh lobster with a rice risotto type filling. It sounds and looks absolutely divine. Miguel can you come over and cook it for us please?
Unfortunately we had no lobster so it was Pan Con Tomate for us (bread, oil, salt, garlic and tomato). It was delicious though.
Here’s my notes on the wine:
It’s a delicious looking lemon colour in the glass. On the nose it has wonderful toasty aromas with butter, popcorn, melon, citrus, almonds and all the goodness of a beautifully oaked chardonnay. In the mouth it’s rich but oh so fresh at the same time. Absolutely satisfying!
This wine was sent to me as a sample, I was under no obligation to post about it.
