Silenzi, Isola Del Nurachi 2009

A lend of 50% Monica  and 50% Sangiovese coming from Sardegna.  Nice Rose that always has a characteristics of light red.  I liked it.

Lenz, Chardonnay 2007

Another nice wine from Lenz, a Long Island Chardonnay made in a Burgundian tradition.  Apple on a palate, nice minerality.  Overall very enjoyable.

Primaterra, Rose 2010

Pinot Grigio based rose coming from Delle Venezia, pale in color, dry, fruity, fruit friendly. Very pleasant, can be paired almost like a while wine.  Strawberry on a polate, floral nose, enough said

Stolen Moments, Rose delle Venezie

Is there any point of discussing grape variety and flavors of the wine that cost $3.50 and doesn't have a vintage year indicated on bottle?  Not really.  Although I have to say that it is very drinkable, food friendly and refreshing.  Do you really want grand cru of anything for lunch outside when ambient temperature is North from 95?  I thought so too....

Classic, Domaine de Tariquet 2009

Ugni Blanc(70%) - Colombard (30%) blend of 2009 vintage is pleasant as ever.  Crisp, unpretentious, citrus & green apple palate, floral nose, 10.5 % alcohol, perfect summer sipping wine. The fact it is dirt cheap doesn't hurt either

Lenz, Gewurztraminer 2007

Really cool wine from Lenz winery in Long Island (North Fork), lush with tropical fruit on both palate and nose.  I would say lichee's.  It is luscious.  I wouldn't say that it is very food friendly yet it is such a pleasure to sip.  The best pairing I could find is with dry, not very sweet deserts, think something with sea salt...Still, great wine.  It'll hold its own with the Gewurz from Alsace.

Vina Godeval 2009

This one comes from Northern Spain and made out of ancient Godello variety. Mineral, light and crisp.  Very food friendly (think shellfish)  Not a lot of complexity but really good for summer.

Nebbiarosa

Nebiolo based rose coming from somewhere in Italy where they grow Nebiolo....I suppose some place North.  Wonderful summer sipping wine: bone dry, cherry on a palate.  It'll put smile on your face....Very food friendly, goes great with cold cuts, cheeses, vegies, chicken. It cost next to nothing is meant to be drunk often and in large quantities.
