Yellow Tail Chardonnay
2007
South Eastern Australia
This is a good all around enjoyable summer wine that goes well with pasta and/or chicken. It fits in a tighter budget yet tastes better.
A little peach and vanilla, this can be surprisingly rich with the right food.
Walking by my little barrel of herbs outside my kitchen, I noticed my basil practically jumping out at me. I picked a whole bunch and then grabbed some pignolia nuts and garlic and got out the blender. A little olive oil and I was ready. Fresh pesto to add to my grilled chicken and otherwise boring pasta. I poured a glass of chardonnay and I was happy at the end of the day.
8 out of 10
13.5% alc. by vol.
$12 / 750 ml. bottle
And all I wanted was the simple things
A simple kind of life
And all I needed was a simple man
So I could be a wife . . .
I'm so ashamed, I've been so mean
I don't know how it got to this point . . .
A Simple Kind of Life, Gwen Stefani
