Yvonne's wine recommendations
CHEAP AND CHEERFUL
Sacred Hill Orange Label HB Chardonnay 2014 $11.90 (on special)
It smells like a custard square, creamy, lemony and has hints of coconut. To drink, it's tangy, tropical and has a splash of grapefruity goodness on the finish. It's got lovely length of flavour and is a real crowd-pleaser.
MID PRICE MAGIC
Vidal Reserve Chardonnay 2014 $19
I love the scent of roasted nectarine, cinnamon, caramel and grapefruit, but I love the way it tastes more! Juicy, succulent stonefruit merge with light, almond meal and spicy citrus flavours are injected with crisp acidity to create a deliciously light and beautifully balanced chardonnay. Yum-o-rama.
TREAT YOURSELF
Mills Reef Elspeth Trust Vineyard Gimblett Gravels Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 $49
Wow! Where to start with the aromatics? It's just got EVERYTHING a cabernet sauvignon fan could ever want. Fragrant fruit wood smoke, dense, concentrated berries, dark chocolate, hints of menthol, pepper, violets, graphite and dried bouquet garni herbs. It's rich, robust and warming to drink, comforting yet challenging at the same time, velvety yet with just right amount of chew - it's gorgeous.
3 - Movie Review - Sarah McMullan.
3:45 The Panel Pre-Show
What the world is talking about. With Jim Mora, Julie Moffett, Garry Moore and Max Ritchie.
