New Zealand
I'm a big fan of Giesen - it's a brand my parents in NZ adore and one that I've come across a few times in Perth at my local Dan Murphy's and festivals like the Good Food & Wine Show. I spotted this bottle of 2015 bubbles for about $20 and couldn't resist!
It's made from Chardonnay grapes typically and they use the charmant method to make it which means they use pressurised stainless steel tanks, Prosecco is also made this way but not champagne.
It's a shimmery yellow in the glass with notes of fresh croissants and Granny Smith apples on the nose. The palate is very approachable with smooth flavours of pear mingling with the racy citrus seamlessly. Not bad for a $20 Fizz!
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #tcweekdaywine #tctastingnotes
