Austria   Rabl Winery 'Spiegel Vineyard' Gruner Veltliner 2006 Kamptal, Austria $17.95 Look for floral and mineral aromas to open this very well-balanced and fleshy-textured white. The grape is known for good acidity while the premium producers are found in three small areas, Kampstal being one. Elegant and fully textured, you'll enjoy a rush of citrus and yellow peach flavours that linger on the clean and zesty finish. Often found in wine-friendly restaurants (order by the glass), you can also enjoy yours at home alongside pan-grilled white fish under a drizzle of lemon.

(VH) California  Lotus Winery Chardonnay 2006 Russian River $22.95 Vanilla, butterscotch and toasty notes billow off this medium-bodied opulent Chardonnay. Very rich flavours of tropical fruit, apple and white peach drench the palate. It's fully textured with a lingering finish of succulent ripe tree fruit and moderating citrus tang. Think of a well made white Burgundy at a quarter the price. Order by the case via email from Aaron Shaw This e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
