Ronco dei Tassi Pinot Grigio
From the Collio in Fruili this 100% organic wine made with indigenous yeast and hand harvested is full in the mouth, citrusy, crisp and offers a lengthy finish. There are many flabby Pinot Grigios out there this is not one and well worth the try and the price. Should retail around $20
2020 Nivarius Rioja, Tempranillo Blanco
Ok now is your chance to step out there and dip you toes into this cutting edge offering from Kysela Pere & Fils Importer. Fran is a Master Sommelier with an impeccable palate. This treat is as of course tempranillo grapes, incredible aromatics, lees stirred in french oak barrels for enhance your palate experience. Look for stone fruits, apple minerality. Give it a try as this is a great value for now at Retail around $18
2020 Alexander Valley Vineyards Chardonnay
89+ pointer again from this star performer Winery in Sonoma near Healdsburg. The Wetzel family has been a top performer for a long time. This Chardonnay sports pineapple, melon, pear, lemon zest and more as it opens up. Great balance, acidity, medium bodied and for convenience a screwcap. So look for this one in the $18 dollar range retail.
Another Mike's Picks coming soon
