| 75 | | | 93 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Medium- full-bodied dry white wine; pale yellow. Delicate, clean scent of fresh white flowers, a little note of citrus peel. Clean, delicious white fruits—melon and a touch of grapefruit—unite in a rich flavor experience. Long, clean, crisp, mouth-watering finish. Wine just loves food, but also drinks very nicely on its own. One of the consistent leaders in the genre. Very gentle oak. Serve just nicely cool, about 60ºF (15ºC); in tulip-shaped white wine glasses.
Suggested Food Pairings:
Goat cheese; pistachio-herb encrusted scallops, sautéed in olive oil; shrimp sautéed in olive oil, butter and white wine (hold the garlic); frito misto or fried calamari with lemon or herbed aioli (tasted at Medici); tarragon chicken or shrimp salad (a real winner!); veal scaloppini with lemon and very rich buttery mashed potatoes; Thai or Vietnamese-style salads with green papaya, green mango, cilantro and a light Asian-style dressing; crab cakes; King crab legs with lemon butter.
