2007 / Luna Vineyards / Pinot Grigio / Napa County / California / White Wine
Includes 5% chardonnay; 80% done in stainless steel, the rest in older barrels; 30% of the wine went through malo. Fairly pale color. Fresh peach and lemon on the nose, with notes of honey, butter and earth. Quite delicate on the palate, with lovely subtle intensity and very good cut to the peach and orange blossom flavors. Lively acidity (only 30% of the wine went through malolactic fermentation) gives grip and verve to the mid-palate and finish. Another excellent value.

2007 / Chateau Ste. Michelle / Eroica / Riesling / Columbia Valley / Washington / White Wine
Made in collaboration with the Dr. Loosen estate in Germany's Mosel region, is light to medium straw-colored with fragrant aromas of spring flowers, mineral, and honeysuckle. Crisp and just off-dry, in a Kabinett style, it delivers flavors of melon and pineapple. The wine is balanced and vibrant and may well evolve for several years in the manner of a top German Mosel Kabinett.

2008 / Trenza / Blanco / Edna Valley / California / White Wine
A wonderfully rewarding wine. It shows the dryness and crisp acidity you want in a savory white, and the fruit flavors, of peaches, grapefruits and green apples, are controlled and subtle. There’s just a touch of oak, which adds softness, and of creamy lees. Brilliant and distinctive. Albariño and Grenache Blanc.

The 2008 Roero Arneis is an intensely mineral-driven offering laced with white peaches, flowers, almonds and smoke. This pure, crystalline Arneis offers remarkable focus and energy in a highly appealing style. These new releases from Correggia are impressive for their consistency, drinkability and varietal trueness. Even better, a number of the wines are terrific values as well.

2007 / Domaine Gilbert Picq et Ses Fils / Chardonnay / Chablis / Burgundy / France / White Wine
The last bottling of this basic village wine, done in March of 2009) Pink grapefruit, pineapple syrup and oyster shell on the nose. Then sweet and surprisingly creamy in the mouth, with a concentrated lemony flavor that avoids any impression of hardness. A very ripe wine from a crop that was sharply reduced by hail. For all its richness, this soil-driven village wine finishes with excellent grip and length.

2008 / Melville / Viognier / Estate / Verna's / Santa Rita Hills / California / White Wine
One of the freshest, most mineral-laced California Viogniers is Melville’s 2008 Viognier Verna’s Vineyard. Exotic, floral, peach, apricot, honeysuckle, crushed rock, and spring flower aromas jump from the glass of this medium-bodied, exuberantly fruity, delicious white wine. It is best consumed during its first 1-2 years of life. While Melville may be more well-known for their brilliant Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs, they also do a spectacular job with Rhone varietals.

2006 /  Bonny Doon Vineyards / Roussanne / Beeswax Vineyard / Le Vol des Anges Arroyo Seco / Half bottle / Dessert Wine
(375ml) Medium orange- gold. Poached pear, apricot, orange marmalade and floral honey aromas display an exotic personality. Fat and unctuous, with deep pit fruit compote flavors complicated by subtle hints of toffeed nuts and pear skin. Finishes broad and sweet, with a refreshingly bitter peach pit bite, gentle mineral lift and impressive persistence. This would be fantastic with stinky, runny or blue cheeses.

2007 / DuMol / Viognier / Lia / Russian River Valley / California / White Wine
One of the best efforts DuMOL has made yet with their white Rhone program is the 2007 Viognier Lia. This goes through full malolactic yet is bone dry and retains tremendously crisp acidity, giving uplift to the very substantial lychee, apricot, peach, and exotic fruit notes of this full-bodied, fresh, lively wine, which even has some minerality, something that the top Condrieus from the northern Rhone also possess. This wine should drink nicely for several years.

2007 / Alban / Estate / Viognier / Edna Valley / California / White Wine
As for the white wines, the 2007 Viognier Estate appears to be the finest example of this cuvee they have yet made. The good news is that there are around 350 cases. It is not your typical blowsy Viognier, but one with strong minerality, excellent precision, and super-intense, concentrated, honeysuckle, apricot, and peach-like notes. Dazzling acid levels and the mineral component ooze throughout this wine, giving it tremendous character, personality, and complexity. I doubt it will age long as this varietal tends to oxidize quickly, but for drinking over the next several years, this is a terrific Viognier.

2007 / Peter Michael / Sauvignon Blanc / l'Apres Midi / Sonoma / California / White Wine
One of the best Sauvignon Blancs that has been made in California is the l’Apres Midi and the 2007 continues that succession of wonderful Sauvignons. The production is just over 2,000 cases, and while some Semillon is often blended in, the wine is dominated by Sauvignon, with its notes of melony fruit, lemon grass, fig, and spice. The 2007 is very fragrant, with hints of honeyed grapefruit and spice. Drink it over the next 1-2 years.

1997 / Chateau d'Yquem / Sauternes / Bordeaux / France / Sweet White Dessert Wine
A sensational Yquem, 1997 may be this estate's finest effort since 1990 (although I would not discount the 1996 turning out to be nearly as good). The 1997's light gold color is accompanied a gorgeous perfume of caramel, honeysuckle, peach, apricot, and smoky wood. Full-bodied and unctuously-textured, with good underlying acidity as well as loads of sweetness and glycerin, it looks to be a great vintage for this renowned Sauternes estate. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2055.

Made from 100% Chardonnay from the Alban Vineyard, the 2005 Mr. K. The Nobleman possesses 235 grams of residual sugar per liter as well as exceptional acid levels. This incredibly rich, sweet white is almost like the Quintessence bottlings from Alsace’s Domaine Weinbach. Its mind-boggling purity, balance, intensity, and sweetness are balanced by the wine’s zesty acidity. An amazing achievement fashioned from 100% botrytised fruit, it will keep for 20 or more years.

The 2005 Atlantis Fe 203-3e Roussanne Vin de Paille is a 100% Roussanne cuvee possessing 352 grams of residual sugar per liter. While it is a stunning effort, when tasted next to the two Mr. K. whites, it comes in slightly below those two out-of-this-world offerings. Incredible aromas of honeysuckle and marmalade are classic late-harvest Roussanne, and the wine’s sweet style is beautifully balanced by terrific acidity (12.5 grams of acid per liter).
