As you guys probably know, I'm a sucker for a good chardy. So when this new release from Alkoomi showed up in my mailbox, I was just a touch excited to try it! Alkoomi are in the Great Southern wine region of WA and produce some stellar wines.
This 2016 Chardonnay is a glistening silver-yellow colour in the glass. The nose is lovely and creamy with melon, vanilla and a touch of citrus spritz coming through. That creamy texture follows suit on the palate with flavours of honeydew melon, pineapple and refreshing lemon acidity. I'd be interested in seeing how this one develops over the next few years.
All opinions are based on my own taste buds. Wine is subjective, so make sure you drink what you enjoy! #tcweekdaywine #gifted
