White Wine

Pierre Sparr Sol Calcaire Pinot Gris 2020, Alsace A.C., France: White-flower lift and pear-nectar ripeness unfurl over a streak of wet-stone minerality in this limestone-driven Pinot Gris. Ripe yet nimble, its balanced sweetness is offset by a crisp, saline finish. Pair with crab-cakes and goat-cheese-sage salad. Pinot Gris food pairings: sushi, BBQ pork riblets, mild vegetarian curries. Drink: 2025 - 2027 19482 12% D 750 mL $20.95 Score: 90/100. August 2025. Top Rated White Wine Full Review Add to Shopping Cart

Rosés

Cellier des Dauphins Val Soleu Organic Rosé 2024, Drôme, Rhône I.G.P., France: Wild-strawberry and pink-grapefruit aromatics lead into a crisp, citrus-zest finish on this organic Rosé. Silky and bright, it’s pure refreshment. Serve chilled with smoked-salmon rice-paper rolls and herb-crusted goat-cheese croquettes. Rosé food pairings: creamy cheeses, grilled shrimp tacos, salads, cold turkey sandwiches. Drink: 2025 - 2026 37664 12.5% XD 750 mL $15.95 Score: 90/100. August 2025. Best Value Rosé Wine Full Review Add to Shopping Cart
