What a fun wine. The nose shows Jolly Rancher watermelon candy and fresh apples, with a background of steel. Candied apples, baked pears, and white pepper all come through on the palate. Watermelon comes back on the finish. It has a good acid backbone from which to hang all the

This is a floral treat from John Duval, the former Chief Winemaker at Penfolds. A bowl of aromatic white flowers blow up from the glass, followed by poached pear. The palate is just as floral. Magnolias and citrus blossoms, with poached pears, make up the initial flavors on the palate.

This wine is a very pretty blend of sweet and tart. Apples waft up from the glass on the nose. Soft pears and honey swim in a silky palate. Just a touch of Meyer lemon provides a citrus zing of balance against the sweetness on the finish. Drink with pork

This is a fresh, soft white Bordeaux blend that will pair well with white fish. The wine presents with a clear straw color. Those nose is sweet, suggesting key lime pie and a graham cracker crust. On the palate it has tropical fruits, dominated by mango, followed by zesty citrus.

A young ten years old, this is just starting to show its age with a rich golden glow. The nose is wonderfully floral- the aroma of peach blossoms leaps from the uncorked bottle, followed by the light scent of ripe peaches. It has a velvelty mouth feel and flavors of

Glassware drips with condensation. Ice cubes shift and clink softly. Screw caps and cans crack and hiss gently. Summer is perfect for white wine. Depending on where you live, summer ranges from clear and sunny to oppressively humid. In the Pacific Northwest we're spoiled by gorgeous summer weather, but endure a
