We have had a string of warm days and it looks as if it is going to continue for a few more days. Of course this means that white wine is palatable again.
I have a hard time drinking white wine when it is really cold out. Just as I have no desire to drink a red wine when it is warm out.
While we have been having this lovely stretch of days above 50 degrees I have been enjoying Big House White. Like Big House Red it is a varietal which is a blend of Viognier, Chenin Blanc, French Columbard, and Sauvignon Blanc. The French Columbard is clean and fresh, the Chenin Blanc and Sauvignon Blanc contribute crisp acicity and the Viognier adds to the mouthfeel and lists up the floral aroma.. It goes with anything especially, potato-crusted sea bass, grilled veggies, pasta with cream sauce, crustaceans, garlic-roasted poultry, anything that swims.
Wine Enthusiast gives the 2007 Big House White an 89 and Wine Spectator gives it an 83.
For a good time stop by the Big House.
