They make an interesting blend of a blanc de blanc and a blanc de noir. The first grape's fruityness and the firmness of the P.Noir give it a good equilibrium between the sweet and sour flavors of fish and it tastes wonderful even with wasabe.    (hide)

  Relocate to Italy. Rome in particular. There you can purchase very pleasant ... are decent wines made from Torrontes (white) and Malbec (red) which can have reasonable flair and appeal for a mass giving campaign.

  Tierra de Luna Torrontes/Chardonnay 2008

  Snoothrank:

  The coloring is almost as clear as water but the nose had incredible aromas of peaches and apricots along with some oranges and citrus. There were wonderful floral notes on top. The palate was full of fruits and mineral tastes from the terroir. This is a steal at $7.

Read moreMoscato, or muscat, is one of the oldest grapes known. It's found all over. ... try viognier, malvesia, or torrontes. The problem with some of those wines is that while they smell wonderful, they don't deliver as much on the palate, so you need to choose carefully. WA is great and all of the recs above are pretty good. The Eroica is good every year. It's got a touch of residual sugar on it, so it's not completely dry, but then again, many German wines these day's aren't either. As far as the Long Shadows project goes, those wines are almost all good IMHO, except for the riesling, which always disappoints. There is much better in Germany and in WA. The most basic wines by Columbia Crest and its sister Chateau St Michelle are fair deals for their prices, so why pay extra for the collaboration project?    (hide)

  Santa Julia Torrontes White Argentina Mendoza 2006

  Snoothrank:

  tastes like it has brandy with half the consistency. 12.5abv doesn't justify this level of filth.

  Charles - they really haven't hit it with pinot noir yet. They're trying it in ... can find good chardonnay and torrontes as well as palomino
