Today we have a Premier Estates Wine special. They are winning awards galore so we thought we would see what all of the fuss was about. We tried the following award-winning wines.
11.5% vol. 75cl
This was a delicious sparkling wine. Not all Cava is equal, but this one was fruity and refreshing. It is nice and light with a good amount of sweetness. This Cava is a double award-winner and it was my favourite out of the six we reviewed (Followed by the rosé). It has citrus and apple flavours. Perfect for parties, dessert, fish, pasta, risottos or white meat.
12.5% vol. 75cl
South Africa Chenin Blanc – Bronze
SOUTH AFRICAN CHENIN BLANC
12.5% vol. 75cl
This is a fresh wine with a good, crisp finish. The citrus aromas and flavour of lychee makes this wine interesting, but also a good all-rounder. This wine doesn’t seem to want to be placed, it leaves you taking another sip as it is complex. it is not too sweet (nor too sour), making it perfect for white meat such as pork or Asian food.
Australia Shiraz – Commended
AUSTRALIAN SHIRAZ.
13.5% vol. 75cl
South Africa Shiraz Rosé – Commended
SOUTH AFRICAN SHIRAZ ROSÉ.
12.5% vol. 75cl
I love rosé. Although we always end up having a debate about it in the office. Some of us prefer a paler, less sweet rosé, while others like a deeper redish colour, which is generally more sweet. While I am susceptible to a Pinot Grigio Blush, I also love the darker sweet stuff. This shiraz rosé is perfect for summer. It is deep and full of berries. A refreshing wine which will go well with salmon, pasta and creamy cheese.
Australia Chardonnay – Commended
AUSTRALIAN CHARDONNAY.
12.5% vol. 75cl
A smooth chardonnay with a long finish. Soft, smooth and tropical. This fruity wine is perfect for summer. Enjoy with fish or turkey.
