A Quick Intro to White Wines Around the World
If you're just beginning to delve into the wonderful world of wine, you may find yourself confused by the amazing variety of wines reds, whites, blends, bubblies and the many, many choices within each of those wide categories. We'll focus on just one of those for this brief introduction white wines. We'll provide a short tour of the most popular varietals (types of grapes), tell you what you can expect from each and what sets them apart from each other.
Chardonnay
Chardonnay is absolutely the most popular white wine in America in fact, it's reportedly the only white wine many wine lovers buy. Chardonnay is quite often the first white wine a new wine fan will try, largely because it is so likable. Chardonnay tends to be on the dry side, meaning not very sweet, and it frequently has flavors of apples, tropical fruit, vanilla, and butter, and a varying amount of oak, depending on the winery where it was produced. White Burgundy, from France, is nearly always all Chardonnay. Many other wine regions throughout the world produce Chardonnay, including Chile and Australia. It's fairlyeasy to find good choices of American Chardonnay available for under $20. Well-knownand consistently reliable producers include Beaulieu Vineyards, Columbia Crest, and Chateau St. Michelle, and others.
Sauvignon Blanc
Sauvignon Blanc, also known as Fume Blanc, is another favorite white wine. Sauvignon Blanc is quite often described as freshly mown, meaning that it reminds the drinker of freshly mown grass. It is a medium-bodied white wine with noticeably fruity aromas like peach, grapefruit, and melon, and is dry and refreshing with medium acidity. Sauvignon Blanc is a particularly nice summer wine, especially good with seafood and it's one of the best all around matches for hors d'oeuvres and picnics. A very nice choice, for under 15 dollars, is offered by Babich (New Zealand).
Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio, also referred to as Pinot Gris (the actual grape name), is Italy's most popular white wine, and is popular around the world, although the Italian Pinot Grigios can be somewhatbland. Pinot Grigios are easy to drink, due to their crisp, light taste. Oregon's Pinot Gris tend to have more character, offering medium body, with more pronounced fruit and more acidity. Higher quality bottles have fruity flavors of pear, apple, honeydew and a bit of spice. Two very nice Pinot Gris from Oregon, available for between $12-$18, are King Estate and Chateau St. Michelle, among others.
Riesling
Riesling wines are generally considered the most popular German wine, and they are produced in two extremely different styles dry and sweet. Rieslings are categorized by the ripeness of the grapes when picked. Kabinett is made fromnormally ripe grapes, and is a light to medium-bodied, mostly dry wine. You'll oftenfind the word trocken on a bottle of Riesling, which means dry in German. "Spatlese" is produced from grapes picked later, and results in a bit richer, slightlysweeter, wine. Auslese, which means late harvest, is made from even more ripe grapes, and is usually quitesweet. Rieslings are typically fruity, with apple, peach, and honeysuckle tastes and floral undertones. Rieslings are relatively inexpensive - you can find excellent offerings for under $10. One reliably goodchoice is Strub Niertsteiner Riesling Kabinett, in addition toChateau Ste. Michelle Riesling.
Gewurztraminer
Gewurztraminer is another popularGerman white wine, while also being produced in the U.S., France, New Zealand, and Australia. Gewurztraminer is also producedin both dry and sweet styles. Gewurztraminers have a bold, full-bodied taste, considerably more so than most other white wines. Typical aromas associated withGewurztraminer are lychee nuts and rosewater, and its flavors include pear, apricot, cinnamon, and honey. A nice, inexpensive Gewurztraminer is available fromTrimbach (France, under $15).
A final note
The best way to determine your preferencesin white wine is to just pick out a samplingof bottles, and give them a try. For each varietal, you'll want to choose a bottle that's representative of the style you're investigating. Websites such as Wine.com can be immensely helpfulwith finding solid, yet inexpensive choices. Once you find a varietal and producer you find particularly enjoyable, you might want to buy a case to have handy for entertaining, or to just enjoy at home. Most white wines don't improve with aging, so you won't want to keep them around for years. However, you dowant to be sure to properly store your wine, so they maintainthe wonderful flavors and aromas you appreciate. You might want to investin an inexpensive wine fridge, to keep all your wines at their best.
White wines are best served moderately chilled, so you may want to refrigerate them beforehand, then remove themabout 15-20 minutes before serving. Better yet, you might want topick up an iceless wine chiller, which will chill (or warm) a single wine bottleto the optimal temperature automatically just select the pre-programmedwine varietal, insert the bottle, and the chiller will automatically cool (or warm) your wine to the best temperature, and keep your wine at the right temperaturethroughout your wine tasting.
