Delicious duo: A very different pair of whites just waiting to be tasted

 


Taylor Made NV King Valley Prosecco

A new addition to the Taylor Made range from Taylors Wines, this King Valley prosecco shows green apple and honeysuckle characters on the nose and palate with a refreshing crisp acid finish. Enjoy by itself or with appetisers such as smoked salmon blinis or bruschetta. About $25. Available at select independent fine wine retails or through www.taylorswines.com.au  Rating: 91



Hardys 2017 HRB Chardonnay

Thomas Hardy first started blending parcels from various regions of Australia in the 1860s and this tasty drop carries on that tradition. Blended from fruit from the Adelaide Hills, Yarra Valley and Tumbarumba, this shows citrus and stone fruit on the nose and palate, with a touch of creaminess and well-integrated oak and a long, complex finish. A stylish modern chardonnay. $32-$39. Ask at fine wine outlets or try www.hardyswines.com Rating: 95
