Written By Treve Ring Libations / White Wine Sep 28, 2010 Evans & Tate Margaret River Chardonnay 2007 SHARE VIA: Facebook Twitter PinterestMargaret River, Australia$20-24 +379149It’s ok to do white after Labour Day. The arrival of cool autumn eves and drizzly days call for comforting and warming reds, but don’t bid farewell to white wines. Especially structured whites like this Margaret River Chardonnay.Margaret River is at the southern tip of Western Australia (geographically akin to Vancouver Island in Canada). Typically known for their elegant and ripe Cabernet Sauvignon, the region is also becoming increasingly recognized for its whites – especially the concentrated but not cloying Chardonnay. Evans & Tate exemplify this trait – focusing on maximizing fruit while maintaining finesse. Bright lemon, lush white peach and apricot fuzz lead to a complex and creamy, medium bodied palate of lemon, nutty lees, zesty pineapple and herbs. Stylish and focused, with bright acid and a refreshing finish – a white that will be welcome in any season. This fall, pair with local halibut.Rating: (click here to see what our wine ratings mean)AustraliaChardonnayWhite WineWine Reviews SHARE VIA: Facebook Twitter Pinterest Written By: Treve Ring Treve Ring is a wine writer, editor, judge, consultant and certified sommelier, and has been with EAT Magazine for over a decade.\r\n\r\nIn addition to her work with EAT, she is a Wine Critic and National Judge for ...
