Who doesn't love a good glass of wine , especially after a long or busy day? Relaxing on the sofa and indulging in a good wine is an excellent way to wind down, and now we're getting in to autumn, it almost certainly beats going out. And with so many different wines out there, you're certainly not short on options. The only tricky thing is finding one that you like.
Being a recent wine convert in the past few years, I've definitely tried my fair share. But with the news that Andrew Peace wines have launched in Tesco , I knew I had to give them a try. And I had high hopes - this award-winning company hails from Australia, where plenty of amazing wines are made.
The vineyard sits close to the Murray river in Victoria, in the southeast of the country, with the unique climate giving the wine that enviable taste. These two wines - a Chardonnay and a shiraz - are currently priced at £6.50 each in Tesco, which right away sounded extremely reasonable.
But would they hold up in a taste test? So I decided to give them both a try, beginning with the Andrew Peace Masterpeace Chardonnay one Friday after a particularly busy day. Being honest, I'd never usually choose a Chardonnay, with my white wine preference usually being a Pinot Grigio. But immediately I was impressed by the bottle, which has a luxe-looking label emblazoned with the Andrew Peace logo in gold tones.
And even with the first sip, I knew that this was a good one. Unlike a lot of white wines I'd tried, it didn't taste acidi.
