2008 Resonance Vineyard g³, Oregon
Hugely popular at our last Case Lot Sale Tasting, this truly amazing wine is a rich, dry, powerful blend of organically and biodynamically grown Gewürztraminer, Pinot Gris, and Müller-Thurgau grapes from the Willamette Valley. Full and majestically aromatic, the wine is a hearty melange of lychee, orange zest, cloves, nuts, and tropical fruits. Full and dry, it's ready for just about any cuisine you can throw at it.
Regularly $27, now just $12 a bottle.
2007 Fontevecchia Verdicchio, Marches, Italy.
The Verdicchio vines of the Marches cling to the rocky hills above the Adriatic Sea. Baked by the sun and cooled by the sea breeze, those old vineyards yield a wine of perfumed intensity and fruity dryness. Beauty in a bottle, this shimmering white will dare you to resist a second sip.
Regularly $18, now just $9 a bottle.
2007 Perazzetta "Sara" Bianco, Tuscany, Italy.
From the rolling hills of Tuscany, this deliciously unusual white wine is made from the indigenous Trebbiano and Malvasia grapes blended with Chardonnay and Sauvignon. Vibrant and lively in style, the wine is briskly refreshing, with flavors of lemon-lime, melon, citrus blossoms and almonds. A perfect mate to light pastas with shellfish, salads, light cheeses, and cold cuts.
Regularly $15, now just $8 a bottle.
2008 Quinta de Azevedo, Vinho Verde, Portugal.
This dry, fresh, delicate wine is Portugal's "trademark" white. It is served in all the coastal towns to thirsty tourists and locals alike. Poured icy cold, its bare touch of palate-tingling spritz will add a little zip to a warm afternoon. If you need a wine that’s simple and pure, this is simply the wine to pour.
Regularly $11, now just $7.50 a bottle.
