From the highest vineyards in NSW on the slopes of the extinct volcano Mt Canobolas, an elite range of sparkling wine has been handcrafted by Printhie Wines. I was recently sent this sample bottle of their Swift NV Rosé (thank you) to give a whirl which Mr Spittoon and I enjoyed with a cheese and meat platter. This…
I can confirm that even after pregnancy and giving birth that I still love Chardonnay! We dipped into the cellar for this one as I was feeling like something a little special. We picked up a case of this Evans & Tate 2010 Redbrook Chardonnay from WA’s Margaret River a number of years ago and we are…
I’m loving this label. In fact the entire Adelina wine range has some super funked up labels which are definitely worth checking out. I received this sample bottle in my latest Good Pair Days pack (thank you!). The Adelina ‘Refusal to Lie’ 2018 Chardonnay hails from the Adelaide Hills region in South Australia.
Oh hello there Miss Chardonnay! This beauty is a sample we kindly received from Windfall Wine Estate (thank you!) in WA’s Geographe wine region. Julie Williams and husband Phil Hutton are the duo behind the brand and they place a large importance on sustainable and natural farming methods. In fact for the last 7 years they have…
I have no doubt one of my first drinks after meeting our little man will be a glass of Chardonnay. But for now, I’m living vicariously through Mr Spittoon’s descriptors. It’s actually really interesting to see what my descriptors of the nose compares to his notes of the palate. We kindly received this St Annes Winery 2018 Chardonnay…
Introducing the Austin’s 2019 Chardonnay from the Moorabool Valley, Geelong VIC. This $45 Chardonnay was Awarded Best White Wine of the 2019 Ballarat Wine Show. The grapes were hand picked, it spent time in French oak and only 7,400 bottles were produced. Plus it’s a vegan friendly wine!
This is how we celebrated Global Drink Wine Day yesterday! Naturally it had to involve Chardonnay (both Mr Spittoon and I are Chardy lovers). Firstly a big thanks to Bailey Wine Co for this sample of their 2017 Adelaide Hills Charlie’s Patch Vineyard Chardonnay to try. I knew it wouldn’t last long in our house!
When was the last time you had a Kiwi Chardonnay? If it’s been awhile and you love Camembert cheese then this might be the one for you 😉 I hear it’s a fantastic match. A big thanks to Kim Crawford Wines for this sample of their 2018 Chardonnay. It’s available at Liqourland for $22.
Happy 2020 everyone! I hope you’re planning on have a wine-filled year! Naturally we had to see the new year in with a fantastic bottle of bubbles and this Whicher Ridge Wines 2016 Whitetail Sparkling Chardonnay from WA’s Margaret River definitely hit the mark. Start the year as you’re meant to go on, as they say!
