Show Notes
Halliday Wine Companion 'By the Glass' EP 12: Former Hawthorn footy captain Richie Vandenberg is on a mission to remove and recycle one billion single-use plastic bottles from our oceans by 2030, via his wine label The Hidden Sea. Want to know what wine we were drinking? 2021 PINOT GRIGIO. Light, lively and crisp with fresh fruits and mouth watering pear, peach and bright acidity.
2021 CHARDONNAY. Expressive yet refined with generous stone and citrus fruits and hints of vanilla and apple cake spice notes. A fresh but textural mid-palate with great balance and length.
