Got chance to try the Asda EX south of france Chardonnay with dinner last night. I was pleasantly surprised. I am generally a white Burgundy fan and lean towards the richer, honeyed, nutty styles. This wasn't really that, but what it was was a reasonably generous yet composed and refined dry chardonnay. It showed no overly oaky flavours, no overly nothing really other than a well balanced chardonnay. A little fruit, a little minerality, a little structure.
I should really go and get a case at this prices (~£4.50) as it has all the hallmarks of a generalist all-rounder, good to drink on it's own or with a wide variety of foods.
