    I was looking for a wine to match a dish for a client’s hen’s party which is going to be at the beginning on October.

    I approached a good friend of mine, Ryan Kempen, for some advice as he and his family are very knowledgeable when choosing bottle of wine to go with an evening meal.

    I made my way down to Putney’s Majestic to see what I could find. The client requested an Australian wine as the bride to be is Australian.

    I spent about 15min looking at the various wines, and eventually decided on a Vasse Felic Admas Road Chardonnay 2007.

    Since Ryan helped me select the wine it would not be fair to drink it without him. So Ryan and his lovely wife, Sasha Kempen, invited me to dinner where we could really enjoy the wine and give our options about it.

    Vasse Felix is located in Margaret River, in the South Western corner of Australia. Located on the 35 year old estate is the four-year-old state-of-the-art winery where Chardonnay is produced. Packed with ripe tropical fruits, combined with a well-balanced acidity, this is a Chardonnay not to be missed, and will go so well with my dish.

    Once again thanks to Ryan and Sasha Kempen for a great wine tasting evening.
