Fans of Whole Foods Market and organic wine can celebrate. The world's largest natural and organic foods supermarket will be launching a line of organic and sustainably packaged wines this month. There is Green Path Shiraz and Green Path Chardonnay, both of which are made from certified organic grapes. The Australian winery practices sustainable farming and the wines are packaged in Tetra Pak Tetra Prisma packaging which environmentally-friendly packaging material.
dBusiness News offers quick descriptions of the two wines:
Chardonnay Tasting Notes and Vintage Description
The 2006 Chardonnay displays ripe nectarine characters with vibrant notes of tropical fruit salad. It is a superbly balanced wine that fills the mouth with flavor and has a lingering finish. It is ideally matched with summer salads, seafood, chicken and a variety of Asian dishes. The 2006 vintage was characterized by warm weather well below average rainfall. This resulted in low yields that produced fruit of great ripeness and flavor intensity.
Shiraz Tasting Notes and Vintage Description
The 2006 Shiraz displays ripe berry fruit characters combined with spicy notes and subtle oak. It is a superbly balanced wine that fills the mouth with flavor and has a lingering finish. It is ideally matched with cheeses, barbeque, red meats and tomato- based pasta dishes. The 2006 vintage was characterized by warm weather well below average rainfall. This also resulted in low yields that produced fruit of great ripeness and flavor intensity.
