Casey @ Travelling Corkscrew

This week for #winewednesday we thought we’d get into some NZ wine as a warm-up to seeing my parents this weekend. I thought this bottle of ‘The Brothers’ 2016 Chardonnay from @giesenwines would go down a treat. $17 a bottle.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the glass it’s a pale sunshine yellow shade. The nose is full of creamy oak, melon, pear and a hint of camomile. While in the mouth it’s smooth and juicy with flavours of spiced pears and apricots. Highly enjoyable and it looks good up against my ‘Kiwi Catwalk’ pic!

All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective & always evolving, so make sure you drink what you enjoy!

A bitter lingering acid hard to get past. Nice nose.
