[QUOTE="glpease, post: 12165, member: 18"] Great suggestion! I love Viogniers. I don't know if it's available near you, but Pepperwood Grove's is wonderful, and can often be found on sale at Safeway for about $5. At that price, it's an absolute steal. Several of Pepperwood's wines have fooled me into believing that they were much more expensive than they are. The Syrah is super, and their Chardonnay is well above the average "consumerized" versions. They present a lot of wodnerful varietal character and skillful vinification, both of which are uncommon in wines at this price point. Chenin Blancs can also be nice wines to satisfy those who want something with a touch of sweetness and not too much weight or complexity. They've fallen off the popularity wagon in recent years, but there are still a few out there. PB, just, please, say NO to "white Zinfandel." Being in California, I'm a little jaded, but, to me, this is nothing more than a waste of perfectly good wine grapes. (There are some truly spectacular Zins made. None of them are "white.") :darklord: [/QUOTE]
