pink fizz and Australian Brut Cuvee

Two new wines tasted this week, my virgin wine order arrived so after the excitement of unpacking the bottles and admiring the shape I got down to drinking them. (you're going to love the Italian Brachetto bottle - photo's uploading next week when I taste it).

First up was the pink fizz :La Certosa Sparkling Pinot Grigio Rose Brut NV to be exact. This was incredibly drinkable, soft, easy on the mouth and just plain yummy! I drank most of the bottle in one evening, the only downside to it is that it is an ideal one for drinking with the girls... and this time around I was tasting it on my own.

Bubbles were just right, not too fizzy but enough bubble to create a wonderful lighthearted spirit. I'll be ordering more of this one!


Tonight's taster is the Woolundry Rd Brut Cuvee, a very different wine. Dry and packed with fruit it hasn't a hint of sweetness, instead the fruits are clean melon, kiwi and pineapple with just a hint of grapefruit. Good fizz sensation on the mouth, complex flavour and fairly intense. to be drunk with good company, getting ready to go out or perhaps chilled on a summer picnic.
