White WinesFrom crisp and refreshing to sweet and elegant, white wines satisfy many palates. | |
|
| | | | | | | | | Chardonnay | | This is a fresh, fruity grape grown in Burgundy, Champagne, California, Australia, and South Africa. Chardonnay wine tends to taste like fruits ? melon, peach, etc. ? and also many have an oaky flavor. It is one of the most popular and easiest to grow white grapes ? it buds early, grows easily and has high ripeness levels. | |
| | | | | | | Chenin Blanc | | This grape makes a light, fruity wine. It is planted primarily in the US and in the Loire valley of France (well known in Vouvray wine). In South Africa this grape is referred to as Steen. Also known as White Pinot (Pinot Blanco), Chenin Blanc is able to age ten years or more. | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Gewurztraminer | | The name literally means "spice" in German. It has a ground pepper, floral, and nutty taste. Gewurztraminer is grown, besides in Germany, in Italy, California, Canada and Australia. Wines from this grape go well with spicy food. | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Muller Thurgau | | The grape most widely planted in Germany, Muller-Thurgau comes as a mix of riesling and sylvaner. This is also grown in Austria, New Zealand, and the northwest section of the US. It has a floral aroma. | |
| | | | | | | Pinot Blanc | | This grape has a flavor very much like Chardonnay wine. It is grown in Alsace, Italy, and Austria (where it's known as Weissburgunder). It is a mutation of the Pinot Gris grape. It's used in many Californian sparkling wines. | |
| | | | | | | Pinot Gris | | This is a clone of Pinot Noir, grown in France, Germany, Austria and along the west coast of the US. It's also known as Rulander or Grauer Burgunder. It can be used to create both fine whites and roses. | |
| | | | | | | Riesling | | Riesling, aka Weisser Riesling, Rheinriesling, Riesling Renano, and Johannisberg Riesling. A dessert wine-grape, this has a honeyed, musky flavor. Riesling wine is native to Germany, and is also used in France, Australia, California, and many other countries (often under the various other names). In Ontario, Canada, Riesling is used in the creation of Ice Wines. | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sauvignon Blanc | | This grape is grown primarily in California and France. It has a grassy flavor and makes a crisp, light wine. | |
| | | | | | | Viognier | | This rare varietal originated in Condrieu, on the northern Rh?ne. It is predominantly found in the Rh?ne valley and California, noted for spice, floral, citrus, apricot, apple and peach flavors. It typically produces medium bodied wines with relatively high acids and fruit. Viogner can produce fairly complex wines. | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | White Zinfandel | | Most Zinfandel grapes are grown in California, although they are thought to have originated in Southern Italy. The wines can be fruity or spicy, depending on age. The Zinfandel grape makes both Red Zinfandel (if the skins are left on) and White Zinfandel (if the skins are removed). | |
