Wine By Nine

White Wine by Four Sisters from Victoria, Australia. This hand crafted wine shows lifted melon and peach fruit flavours whilst subtle use of new French and American oak has added background depth and complexity. Named after Trevor Mast's four daughters, the Four Sisters range of premium quality wines consists of Sauvignon Blanc, Shiraz, Chardonnay and Merlot. The innovative label was originally created and designed by Trevor's eldest daughter, Daliah.

White Wine by Pillar Box from Barossa Valley, Australia. A blend of 66% Chardonnay (fermented in oak barrels), 20% Sauvignon Blanc, and 14% Verdelho, the excellent 2006 White displays notes of honeyed grapefruit, lemon blossom, and a hint of orange rind in a medium-bodied, fruit-driven, lively, fresh style. -Wine Advocate

White Wine by Torres from Spain. In the mountainous area of the Upper Penedes the more delicate and aromatic white grape varieties are grown. Moscatel and Gewurtztraminer form the basis for Vi\\xF1a Esmeralda, an exceptionally delicate and strikingly fragrant wine. A voluptuous, exotically perfumed nose, with deliciously well-defined primary aromas (some floral notes, roses, lilies...), complemented by secondary aromas derived from the wine's controlled fermentation. Silky and sappy on the palate. Excellent with shellfish (a sublime match for an avocado and shellfish salad, for instance), as well as with fish, fresh melon with cured Spanish ham, pates, poultry or pork in a sweet and sour sauce.

White Wine by Yalumba from Barossa Valley, Australia. Bright and round, with a coconut edge to the pear and tropical fruit flavors. Medium bodied with a lingering polished finish. Stainless steel fermented.

White Wine by Bonny Doon from Central Coast, California. History: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that not all grapes are created equal, and what's more, riesling is the most unequal of them all, the uberweintraube. Riesling's one tragic flaw is not found in its intrinsic character, but rather in the impression conjured up by the images that typically adorn its labels. While effective during the heyday of the Weimar Republic, swooping black eagles and imposing gothic fonts are generally thought to possibly push the wrong buttons association-wise with the contemporary wine-buying public in search of gracious living. If, on the other hand, an earnest and ardent champion of riesling pursued a kinder, gentler form of world doonimation by wrapping a crisp, potentially aromatic and comparatively dry iteration of the noble grape [which happens to be a peerless accompaniment to all manner of Asiatic and equatorial cuisine] in an aquatic daydream, that would be a bass of an altogether different stripe.

White Wine by Columbia Crest from Columbia Valley, Washington. Aromas of caramelized sugar, apple, and pear lead into hints of melon and butter on the palate in this refined Chardonnay. The lingering finish is a lush balance of wood and fruit.

White Wine by Veramonte from Chile, South America. Pineapple, nectarine, melon and banana resonate in this elegant Chardonnay with freshness and a bright finish.?

White Wine by Perrin from Cotes du Rhone, France - Rhone. Jean Pierre and Francois Perrin have taken particular care that this Cotes du Rhone meets their stringent standards of excellence. As proprietors of Chateau de Beaucastel in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, the Perrin family has demonstrated exceptionally high standards for nearly a century. From the relatively cool districts around Cairanne and Jonquieres, the Blanc is an exotic blend of melon, honeysuckle, lemon aromas and flavors. Its freshness and intensity are the result of cold fermentation of the hand-picked grapes, 50% White Grenache, 20% Bourboulenc, and 10% Marsanne, Roussane, and Viognier.

White Wine by Santa Rita from Chile, South America. Brilliant yellow-green coloured wine. Intense varietal aroma with predominantly tropical fruits like grapefruit and pineapple, rounded with soft hints of vanilla and hazelnut. A wine of great volume and pleasant acidity. Ageing in American oak has given it a complex structure, sweetness and persistence.

White Wine by Ch. Ste. Michelle from Columbia Valley, Washington. My goal vintage after vintage is to make the Columbia Valley Chardonnay a pleasurable, food-friendly Chardonnay. This 2006 bottling is a fresh, soft Chardonnay with appealing sweet citrus fruit character with subtle oak nuances. I work with vineyard lots from all over the Columbia Valley to make this a complex, interesting wine. This is a versatile food wine that can work with many foods including chicken, pork and white sauce pastas. - Bob Bertheau, Winemaker

White Wine by Estancia from Central Coast, California. Bright tropical notes and stone fruit are accented by nuances of citrus and creme brulee. Soft touches of toasty oak and cream accentuate the lingering finish.

White Wine by Macon-Lugny from Burgundy, France - regions. The Les Charmes vineyard is specially prized for the age of its vines, some as old as 100 years, and its exceptional southern exposure. The wine, vinified and bottled at the nearby Cave de Lugny, is the best selling white Burgundy in the United States. Vinified in stainless steel vats and bottled with no oak aging, Les Charmes is richer and more intense than most Macons. Medium body, clean and fresh. Serve well chilled as an aperitif, or with seafood dishes without rich sauces, chicken, veal and pork.
