2010 Lucien Albrecht Gewürztraminer Reserve
Review Date: 12-24-2011
Spicy and aromatic and quite crisp for a gewurztraminer. A nice holiday wine.
2009 Simonnet-Febvre Chablis
Review Date: 12-24-2011
A rather creamy Chablis with green apple, citrus, stone and mineral notes and a crisp finish. A lot going on in this wine - a great value!
2009 Joh. Jos. Christoffel Erdener Treppchen Riesling Spätlese
Review Date: 12-20-2011
Very, very good! Spice notes and stone fruit and great balance.
2007 Domaine des Baumard "Clos Ste.-Catherine" Coteaux du Layon
Review Date: 12-20-2011
A rich wine that is well-balanced thanks to a good dose of acidity. Delicious but a little goes a long way.
2007 Mönchhof Mosel Slate Riesling Spätlese
Review Date: 12-05-2011
Easy to drink, balanced, and delicious!
2009 François Pinon "Cuvée Silex Noir" Vouvray
Review Date: 11-30-2011
Another lovely chenin blanc from Francois Pinon - citrus and mineral and a dash of spice, with a touch of sweetness balanced by good acidity.
Price:
$20.99
2009 Hetszolo Furmint Sec
Review Date: 11-25-2011
Oak overpowered the subtle fruit and floral notes, making it difficult to tell what was going on in this wine.

$4.99
2010 Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough
Review Date: 11-21-2011
A quintessential Marlborough sauvignon blanc: crisp with a powerful passion fruit aroma and grapefruit and lemon flavors.
2009 Joel Taluau "Expression" St. Nicolas de Bourgueil
Review Date: 11-14-2011
A bright and fruity red, with a very nice mineral note.
Price:
$14.99
2010 Dashwood Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough
Review Date: 11-12-2011
As usual Dashwood is a great deal! A very tasty and crisp NZ sauvignon blanc, with passion fruit and mango aromas and citrus flavors.
2011 Kloof Street (Mullineux Family Wines) Chenin Blanc Swartland South Africa
Review Date: 11-12-2011
This South African chenin blanc is round and creamy, with spice, mineral and tropical fruit notes and just enough acidity. While pleasant, this wine doesn't have the vibrant personality of other, less-oaked South African chenin blancs.
Price:
$18.99
2010 Château Viranel "Tradition" Coteaux du Languedoc Blanc
Review Date: 11-11-2011
This interesting wine has inviting floral and stone fruit aromas but unfortunately a bitter taste overwhelms its subtle mineral and citrus flavors.
Price:
$9.99
2010 Pacific Rim Columbia Valley Riesling
Review Date: 11-08-2011
A tasty, straightforward Riesling that is crisp, a little bit sweet, and easy to drink. An excellent value.
2010 Domaine Cherrier & Fils Sancerre
Review Date: 10-28-2011
This refreshing and delicious wine has lovely notes of citrus, peach, melon, herb and mineral that jump out of the glass. Probably the most fragrant French sauvignon blanc I have ever tasted.
Price:
$16.99
2009 Phillipe Tessier Cour Cheverny Blanc
Review Date: 10-28-2011
This is a very interesting wine - fragrant and spicy with citrus, mineral, and earth. Medium-crisp with a slightly oily texture. Kind of like a spicy Chablis.
Price:
$14.99
2010 Simonsig Chenin Blanc Stellenbosch
Review Date: 10-21-2011
A straightforward sipping wine, with apple and pear, a hint of tropical fruit, and a dash of herbs. Almost not acidic enough for my taste - any less acidity and I might have thought I was drinking a Chardonnay!
Price:
$8.99
2010 Pascal Janvier Coteaux du Loir Blanc
Review Date: 10-21-2011
Not as complex as the Jasnieres wines, but crisp, earthy as Mr. Manekin noted, and delicious. Sometimes I don't know why I ever drink chenin blanc from anywhere besides the Loir(e).
Price:
$15.99
2010 Neil Ellis "Sincerely" Sauvignon Blanc South Africa
Review Date: 10-13-2011
A delicious sauvignon blanc with citrus and mineral as well as a slightly savory note. A lipsmackingly refreshing wine and a real bargain.
Price:
$9.99
2009 Les Chancelieres Vouvray
Review Date: 10-11-2011
An uncomplicated chenin blanc with citrus, mineral, and a bit of sweetness balanced by some zippy acidity.
Price:
$11.99
2010 Cave de Tavel "Lauzeraies" Tavel
Review Date: 10-08-2011
A delicious rose with a raspberry aroma and subtle vanilla flavor tempered by brisk acidity. Flavors are not quite as complex as those of the 2010 Les Vignerons de Fontes Prieure Saint-Hippolyte Languedoc Rose (https://www.klwines.com/detail.asp?sku=1071842), but this is a thoroughly enjoyable wine nonetheless. A definite repeat buy!
Price:
$13.99
2007 Clos La Coutale Cahors
Review Date: 10-07-2011
Has a very earthy aroma, as well as noticeable tannins and acidity. An okay wine, but not for casual sipping.
2007 Henry Lagarde Malbec Mendoza
Review Date: 10-07-2011
An okay wine, doesn't stand out but doesn't displease either.
2008 Lioco "Indica" Mendocino Red Wine
Review Date: 10-03-2011
A good wine to warm the bones on a cool, rainy night. A well-balanced and fairly light wine considering the almost 14% alcohol. Noticeable tannins, some floral aroma, and dark fruit and spice flavors.
Price:
$16.99
2010 Pascal Janvier "Cuvée Silex" Jasnieres
Review Date: 10-02-2011
A very crisp Chenin Blanc with plenty of citrus and stone notes. Less voluptuous than its regular Jasnieres counterpart but certainly delicious.
Price:
$20.99
2010 Pascal Janvier Jasnières
Review Date: 09-25-2011
A delicious, zippy chenin blanc with plenty of stone fruit, mineral, and honey aromas that remind me of a Mosel Riesling minus the sweetness. Another great Jasnieres from Pascal Janvier! Can't wait to try the Cuvee Silex as well.
Price:
$18.99
2010 Les Vignerons de Fontès "Prieuré Saint-Hippolyte" Languedoc Rosé
Review Date: 09-22-2011
A substantial rose that coats the mouth with fresh fruit flavors and spice, accompanied by a very slight hint of vanilla or butterscotch. Has a definite herbal, almost tobacco-like aroma.
Price:
$9.99
2010 Reynon "Old Vines" Bordeaux Blanc
Review Date: 09-20-2011
Crisp and delicious white wine, with mainly citrus notes, but also with a faint waxy aroma and very slightly oily texture.
2007 Green & Red "Chiles Canyon Vineyard" Napa Valley Zinfandel
Review Date: 09-19-2011
An elegant Zin with earthy and fruit notes and balanced alcohol.
2007 Castello di Querceto Chianti Classico
Review Date: 09-19-2011
A very good Chianti with lots of fruit and noticeable but balanced tannins. Smooth and delicious.
2007 Trimbach Riesling
Review Date: 09-19-2011
A lovely Alsatian Riesling with layers of flavors, crisp acidity, and a long finish. Delicious!
2007 Mönchhof Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett
Review Date: 09-19-2011
A very well-balanced Riesling, with sweetness cut by the snappy acidity and minerality.
2007 Mönchhof Erdener Prälat Riesling Auslese
Review Date: 09-19-2011
Delicate, with a bit of a petrol aroma; I preferred the 2007 Monchhof Urzig Wurzgarten Riesling Kabinett.
2009 Domaine Begude Pinot Noir Vin de Pays d'Oc Rosé
Review Date: 09-19-2011
I love pinot noir rose and this one is crisp and balanced and completely delicious.
Price:
$12.99
2009 Dashwood Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough
Review Date: 09-19-2011
A nice sipping wine. A little more grass and a little less passion fruit than usual for a NZ Sauvignon Blanc.

Review Date: 09-19-2011
Not a particularly memorable Sauvignon Blanc.

Review Date: 09-19-2011
A softer version of chenin blanc from the Loire Valley.
2009 Raats Family Wines "Original" Chenin Blanc South Africa
Review Date: 09-19-2011
Another delightful South African chenin blanc! This one has plenty of acidity and minerality to give it zip.
Price:
$12.99
2009 Mulderbosch Chenin Blanc Stellenbosch
Review Date: 09-19-2011
A good South African chenin blanc with just enough acidity to keep it balanced.
Price:
$12.99
2009 Mönchhof Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett
Review Date: 09-19-2011
A wonderfully balanced Riesling, with stone fruit notes and mouthwatering acidity.

Review Date: 09-19-2011
Minerally, with citrus - very easy to drink!

2008 François Pinon "Cuvée Silex Noir" Vouvray
Review Date: 07-22-2011
Finally had a chance to drink this wine, and I am going to buy more while I still can. Delicious, well-balanced wine with all kinds of fruit aromas and mineral flavors. One of the more complex white wines I've had in a while.
2009 Pascal Janvier Jasnières
Review Date: 01-01-2011
Even more delicious than the 2008. Crisp, with fruity aromas and a clean finish.

Review Date: 04-12-2010
A pleasant dry Riesling with a lot of pear and peach aromas and flavors. Has a slightly bitter aftertaste.
