Barooga Station Verdelho Chardonnay 2005 - £5.89
Price on 16-Jun-08 from Laithwaites.
''The success of Verdelho in Australia is an extraordinary phenomenon'' says leading Oz wine critic James Halliday. This Portugese grape was originally used solely in the production of Madeira but Down Under it produces a superb, lime-scented, honeysuckle white. Here it's a perfect partner for ever popular Chardonnay, giving typical sunshine-in-a-glass melon and pineapple flavours an aromatic, citrussy edge - the perfect alternative to over-oaked, over-priced big brand Aussie whites. Indeed for excellent, everyday drinking wines full of sun-drenched ripe fruit - look no further than the delicious Barooga Station , courtesy of the family-run Riverina Estate. The wine wizard here is Sam Trimboli (200 plus medals a year), the winery high-tech and yields are kept low for clean, flavour intensity.
