2024 Henri Bourgeois Sancerre Argilo-Calcaire & Silex, France, Loire Valley, Wine Review
2024 Bodegas Beronia Verdejo Rueda, Spain, Wine RevieT
This is a 100% Verdejo wine from Spain. Light straw colored, clear and bright. The nose is nice with limes, wild Thyme and slight peach. Medium bodied. Crisp acidity. On the palate, this is tasty with the peach and limes coming thru and also slight minerality. A slight lime pith/bitter note on the finish. This is nice on its own but better with food. It will work well with lighter meals and should work well with Ceviche. Drink over the next year or two. Great value.
2023 Cantina Tramin Gewürztraminer Alto Adige - Südtirol Nussbaumer, Italy, Wine Review
One of the best Gewurztraminer's I have had. Medium golden in color, clear and bright. The nose has the classic Lychee Nuts along with a slight floral note, ginger and a bit of melon. Medium to full bodied. Ever so slightly semi-sweet but with enough acidity. On the palate, the melons come more to the forefront along with some spice (nutmeg?). Long finish. This wine has some depth and complexity. It is nice on its own but better with food. This worked quite well with Pad Thai. Drink over the next few years.
2021 Le Ragose Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, Italy, Veneto, Wine Review
2025 Greenwing Pinot Grigio, USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Wine Review
Greenwing is part of the Duckhorn portfolio of wines. This is 96% Pinot Grigio and 4% Pinot Blanc. Light golden in color, clear and bright. The nose is nice with white peach, slight minerality and a hint of lemon/citrus. Light to medium bodied. Slightly viscous. On the palate, the lemon comes out a bit more along with a slight steely/mineral note. Moderate finish. This is an easy drinking-easy going white wine that is nice on its own and will work with lighter meals. Caprese Salad would work well. Drink over the next year or two. Good value.
2025 Cresta Blanca Sauvignon Blanc, USA, California, Livermore Valley, Wine Review
2022 Domaine Bousquet Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve, Argentina, Mendoza, Uco Valley, Wine Review
Very nice showing for this inexpensive Cabernet from Argentina. This is 85% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Malbec. Deep garnet in color, clear and bright. The nose has black cherries, some cassis and a hint of bakings spices. Medium to full bodied. Medium tannins. Nice balance. On the palate, this is straightforward and accessible. Flavors of black cherries. Good finish. This is nice on its own but better with a bit of food. A nice choice with a (veggie) Burger. Drink over the next five years.
