  Author: Fayth

Normally I stick to only buying my favourite wine but on occasion it's nice to try something different. I'm a Chardonnay kind of girl, so I asked my partner to grab a bottle at the supermarket and surprise me.

This was the first time that I've tried any of the Peter Yealands wines. I found this particular wine to be on the medium - dry side where as I generally prefer a sweeter wine.

The Peter Yealands Chardonnay is a crisp, full flavoured wine with a pleasant fruity after taste that was deliciously smooth on the palate with a hint of sharpness when it hits the back of the throat. I usually enjoy a glass of wine before a meal as well as with it and I thought that this wine was better suited with food.

I love the fact that the Yealands Estate is carboNZero certified and environmentally friendly. I greatly admire their goal of becoming the most sustainable winery in the world and love that they use a lot of recycled products for their packaging.

The wine was reasonably priced but I don't think I would buy the Chardonnay again. However I would be interested in trying some of the other Peter Yealands wines.
