Wine of the Week:
2009 Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc Viognier
$14
All sorts of delicious flavors, like honeydew, peach, and jasmine. Bliss. henin blanc brings bright acidity and light, ripe apple and pear aromas and flavors. Viognier adds touches of lush floral and peach aromas and roundness in the mouth. It has a touch of sweetness, but the chenin’s acidity keeps it from being cloying.
Tasting Notes:
This wine is an ideal partner for an Asian stir-fry or a sweet-sour soup, Thai curry or a sushi dish, such as a spicy tuna roll, or seared halibut.
