Dark Horse Chardonnay 2011 (13.5%)

This delicious, juicy Californian gem is bursting at the seams with aromas of peach and custard and soft flavours of baked pear with subtle toasty notes. The addition of a small quantity of viognier lends a delicate hint of blossom on the finish.

Silky and velvety on the palate, this sumptuous white will complement all types of Asian cuisine or even pair well with spicy nibbles or smoked salmon and créme fraiche.

Available in Sainsburys for the normal price of £8.99.

That sounds rather nice though I must say I am falling out of love with the NZ sauvs. I think that due to rapidly increasing demand they are churning out some rather inferior and quite acidic sauvs.

I am more interested in what they are producing in terms of Rising, chardonnay and pinot gris right now.
