AN IDEAL GUIDE TO 10 DIFFERENT TYPES OF WINE

 

Are you a wine newbie looking to understand more about wine? Look no further. Our friends from Californian wine brand, Echo Falls gives us the lowdown on 10 wines from their portfolio.

Merlot

If there was a wine that could match up to your favourite cuddly jumper, Merlot would be it. So when you’re at the peek of comfort, grab a glass and fill it with its perfect partner, Merlot. Just don’t spill any… it’s a pain to get out!

Shiraz

Whether it’s dinner with friends or a cosy night with that special somewhere, this Shiraz is the perfect chaperone. Spicy (not the kind of curry spice, more of a subtle hint of pepper, maybe even a whiff of clove… its nice trust us!) and packed with blackberry flavours.

Cabernet Sauvignon

This bottle may not be the tallest, but it’s definitely dark and oh so handsome. Charming spiced aromas combine with bold blackcurrant flavours to give you a smooth tasting wine that you’d be proud to take home to your parents.

Chardonnay

The elegant classic, Chardonnay! The “I’m so famous that there are children named after me” wine. The wine that has a perfect mix of tropical fruit and spicy oak flavours that had the country in a frenzy longer than it takes to find the perfect LBD.

Chardonnay Pinot Grigio

When you have two great things you can sometimes put them together to make something amazing! Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio are great on their own, but they also work perfectly hand in hand. Much like how this bottle goes perfectly hand in hand with you… go on, pour yourself a glass.

Pinot Grigio

The fresh apple, pear and peach flavours will dance across your tongue, flirting with each and every taste bud along the way.  Not literally of course- but if it was actually dancing we think it would dance the jive, a lively drink with exciting flavours!

Sauvignon Blanc

Don’t you love it when you find a wine that just goes with everything! Your favourite meal, that film you’ve been dying to see, or just your “getting ready” soundtrack. Well. You’ve found it, congratulations! Now all you need to do is enjoy.

White Zinfandel

If you were looking for a beautifully sweet drink with lively flavours then you’ve picked the right bottle. Packed with everything from the fun side of California, sweet flavours of strawberries, peachy aromas and all the celebrity juice you can handle. Okay, it doesn’t have the juice but you can read about that whilst you have a glass.

White Grenache

We know what you’re thinking, “why is this wine called White when it’s clearly a Rosé!” That’s a job for Google. All we know is it’s packed with strawberry and raspberry flavours with an amazing flowery smell. The sweet pink blush is just an added bonus – enjoy!

Pinot Grigio Rosé

Have you ever wondered how wine smells and tastes of different things? And none of them grapes! This one tastes and smells of bright plush strawberry with a smidge of raspberry. It doesn’t make sense why it tastes like that, it’s just one of life’s beautiful mysteries!
