Okay, so I've been really negligent on sharing what wine I am drinking this week. Guess I'm going to blog hell in a wine glass.
I'm a big fan of Australian wine. It's generally very tasty, very reasonably priced and sold just about everywhere now. Although I am a big wine fan, I have strangely never been overly fond of French wine. I like Italian wine (well duh) and lots of Chilean wine, but French never caught on with me. Ditto, Michigan and Niagara region wines.
Tonight is Hardy's Chardonnay, 2002 vintage. My friend Sally Anne in Australia laughs at me, says the Aussie wine we drink in America is cheapie wine in Australia. Hey, it's still pretty good to me. I also enjoy Penfold's Chardonnay and their Merlot.
The Hardy's is billed as "Ripe peach and tropical fruit flavours abound in this bright, refreshing chardonnay." It has a cute kangaroo stamp on the label.
Yes, I have picked wine for the cute labels. Some of them are very good, since the better vintners can afford better artwork.
Hi,
I found your blog on the "Recent Listings" list. Your blog is entertaining, so keep up the good work!
I would like to add you to my blog roll if you don't mind?!
