Have you tried low alcohol or non-alcoholic wines yet? If so, what did you think of them? Have you found any gems?
Last weekend I made pesto for pizza using garlic scapes from the garden and tried pairing it with Yalumba’s 2024 Y Series Lighter Chardonnay. This was my first time trying a low alcohol wine and this lighter Chardonnay clocks in at 7% ABV with 44 calories per 100 millilitres.
Y Series 2024 Lighter Chardonnay $16.99
All Y Series wines are made using wild fermentation and are both vegan and gluten free.
The Y Series Lighter Chardonnay has aromas of peach, pineapple, yogurt and biscuit. This is a dry, medium bodied wine with medium acidity. The mouthfeel is silky but lacks texture and some weight. The palate offers notes of peach, pineapple and lemon yogurt with a medium- finish.
