A.C. Byrne & Co
Margaret River Semillon Sauvignon Blanc
Margaret River, South West Australia, Western Australia, Australia
Recently on the blog I shared my experiences tasting some of the new ALDI wine range which you can read about here: travellingcorkscrew.com.au/blog/aldi-wine-and-liquor
I’ll also be sharing my notes here, so let’s get stuck in...
A.C. Byrne & Co Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2017, $7.99
To be honest, it’s crisp, easy-drinking and for $8 – it’s definitely drinkable. If you like your SBS’s then this is an uncomplicated smashable tipple. On the eye it’s a crystal clear subtle yellow colour. On the nose, it’s rather grassy with passionfruit and lemonade tickling the nostrils. In the mouth, it’s easy-drinking, thirst-quenching, full of subtle flavours and cleanses the palate. Splurge on some deliciously fresh oysters (NZ Bluff oysters) and the salty lemon-ish flavours will be the perfect companion. Would I buy it? Yes for $8 I would, especially to match with seafood (chilli mussels particularly come to mind) or for a chilled out day in the sun with friends. Plus I wouldn’t be worried sharing the bottle at that price!
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #sample #tcweekdaywine #tctastingnotes
