WILDERNESS ESTATE RESERVE CHARDONNAY
AND RESERVE SHIRAZ 2008......6.99 per bottle

from AUSTRALIA

These selections caught my eye with their colorful labels
and very attractive retail price.

I noticed they were imported by DeBortoli Wines whose
products I have enjoyed over the years for their consistent
quality and great value.

The Chardonnay shows nice fruit with just the right amount
of oak for balance. It has good acidity which is hard to find
in an inexpensive white wine. Notes of peach and apricot
come to the surface after the wine warms up just a little.
This will be a perfect match with chicken dishes and light
pasta salads.

The Shiraz is medium bodied and has aromas of plums and
black cherries. It has a bright red color and the fruit just jumps
from the glass. The initial impression is one of sweetness but
has a finish that is elegant and dry. This will be a great choice
for the late summer barbeques and will go nicely with lamb or
steak.
