Wolf Blass Yellow Label 2007 Chardonnay - 87pts

Wolf Blass Yellow Label 2007 Chardonnay - (South Australia) Australia

Decanted: 0 hrs

Cost: $16.99 (BC Liquor Stores)

Tasting Notes: Enjoyed this wine on a trip to Winnipeg at a wine bar in the financial center of downtown. This oaked Chardonnay has a nice aroma or tropical fruits: melon and kiwi. On the palate you can taste mango and kiwi.

The dry wine has a nice long finish as you would hope to get from a chardonnay but in my humble opinion is slightly too acidic. A fine sipper nonetheless. - LC

Yellowglen NV "Pink" - 84 pts

Yellowglen Non Vintage Pink - Sparkling Wine (Australia - Victoria)

Decanted: 0 hr

Cost: 12.99 (Bc Liquor Store)

Tasting Notes: Yellowglen, a Wolf Blass brand, crafts this lovely sparkling wine from chardonnay and pinot noir grapes sourced from South-Eastern Australia. The colour is only mildly rosé. For the price, this wine has an impressive bouquet of rose pedals and strawberry characteristics. You taste berry fruits and a hint of citrus on the palate. The finish is mineral and smooth, just what you want from a bubbly wine. Excellent value. - LC
