Non-vintage?
I may be young and inexperienced, but I think finding a wine without a year is an experience I would share with many. It’s called Cellier des Dauphins and usually doesn’t get a second look as it’s too expensive, but a discount brought it to three quid, so I snapped it up. It’s Chardonnay-Grenache, 12.5% and comes in a strangely shaped bottle, like a dumpy Burgundy shape.
There were tropical fruits including pineapples, and pears on the nose, the body continued the theme but was ever so slightly sweet but with a tanginess which in combination reminded me of a Chinese sweet-and-sour sauce. The finish was unremarkable. I enjoyed a glass or two whilst watching the David Attenborough series ‘Life in the Freezer’ about the Antarctic. I originally bought it because there were pictures of polar bears on the back, but I was amazed to discover they don’t feature in any of the episodes!
