Called into Wilson Wines this week and they suggested I do the tasting notes of a rather good Semillon Chardonnay and then compare them with theirs!!! Oooer!! However not one to pass up the opportunity of tasting wine I said I would give it ago. Stand by Oz Clarke!! or indeed Gilly Goolden ( I loved her descriptions of the wine she tasted)
So here goes from the Amateur!!
Richmond Ridge Semillon Chardonnay from South Eastern Australia.
The scent was steely with a hint of green tea. The taste was ripe peaches at first but then lingered into Greengages with a sharp dry ending. I loved it.
This is what the experts say:
Pale lemon in colour – displays an abundance of tropical pineapple, melon and peach with subtle hints of fresh green tea. It is a crisp and clean wine which is delicious with mustard roast chicken or lemon grilled Salmon.
So how did I do?
As we did two wines last week we thought we would do two this week so here is a rather yummy red:
Richmond Ridge Shiraz Cabinet
South East Australia
Tasting Notes from the experts:
Rich and full of flavour this vibrant wine has dark berry flavours, a generous palate with Blackcurrant ,raisin and subtle chocolate flavours.
