Haven't blogged my wines for a wine - which doesn't mean I haven't been drinking really fine wines - just that I forget.
Shadow's Run is an unwooded Chardonnay and is a very nice wine. A pale gold in the glass, crystal clear with a green tinge - it tastes as good as it smells. I smelt peach, pear with maybe a hint of rock melon. Slightly citrusy on tongue - but not a lot of acid. Is very soft to drink and went perfectly with our goats cheese and biccies. A lovely way to relax after work - pool, wine and cheese.
Fox Creek Wines are in the Mclaren Vale wine region in South Australia, and we spent a very pleasant week there in November last year (2008). Sadly when we got to Fox Creek - we didn't get to meet Shadow who had passed away shortly before our arrival. The winery is very pretty - and we were happy to see we actually cross 'Fox Creek' on the way to the winery itself. Lovely gardens, with statues of strange birds and animals scattered here and there. We joined their club there and then and have just had our first delivery.
