Whites:
Always good! AC Touraine Sauvignon Blanc Gibault, 2012 (available from agent Nokhrin wines). The real taste of SB: crisp, mineral, fruity with a (medium) body on top. Chill well and enjoy on its own or to start…Sheila and I already went through 2 cases! At $13 it is a steal (you need to star at $20 with other SB to match it)!
A nice one for fish (or thai food): An original Californian blend: Viognier, French Colombard, Riesling and Gewurtztranminer gives you a good body, acidity and fruit at an unbelivable price tagL $7.95! Picked by Sharon from a Beppi Crosariol review in the Globe & Mail: Primal Roots, California Blend, 2011 (at Vintages)
For your foie gras (or other sweet wine needs), cheaper than a Sauternes, from the same region, with the potential to stay a few years in your cellar: Chateau des Arroucats 2010, AC Sainte Croix du Mont. Full body and sweet. $17.70. (at Vintages)
A day to day Sauvignon Blanc from Chile, crisp, mineral and fruity, light body (Vs the Touraine above).LCBO General Listing. Caliterra Reserva, Sauvignon Blanc, 2013 at $9.95, not a risky try!
