Burrowing Owl Viognier 2021, Okanagan Valley
British Columbia, Canada$40.00
An intense and classically aromatic Viognier showing lots of orchard blossom, honeysuckle, jasmine, white peach and apricot with some pineapple, baked pear and orange sherbet notes. The palate is full and rich, soft textured with crisp acidity, flavours of vanilla, mango, papaya, and ripe peach with some mandarin peel zestiness on the long finish.

Avelino Vegas Montespina Verdejo Sobre Lías 2023, Do Rueda
Ribera Del Duero, Spain$16.95
Very nice - fresh, citrus, apples & pears, velvety texture like chardonnay. A bit too much like Sauv Blanc for K's taste.

Monte Del Frà Lugana 2023, D.O.C.
Lugana, Italy$24.95
This trebbiano is a lovely, ripe, yellow-fleshed orchard fruit and saffron-inflected Lugana. I like the creamy texture, the round and mouthfilling palate, the richness and density unexpected at the price.
Excellent - peaches, then pear/apple, soft sour lemon finish. Nice creamy body. Great with lemon pasta.

Casal De Ventozela Loureiro Vinho Verde 2022
Vinho Verde, Portugal$15.95
This wine is crafted to emphasize Loureiro's floral attributes, with 30% fermented in oak and the rest in stainless steel. The result is a zippy, taut, focused expression, with excellent poise and tangy apple tones. Perfect for seafood.
Wow - tangy apple and citrus, a touch of spritz, long tart finish. K really liked this one - keep it stocked.

Esporão Bico Amarelo 2023, Doc Vinho Verde
Alentejo, Portugal$12.95
A mix of three grape varieties; alvarinho, loureiro and avesso for a truly dry and savoury Vinho Verde. Indelible stamp and at the price it would be hard to find a more affordable example that drinks with great seriousness. Lime zest intensity and the umami is nearly off the charts.
RH - very nice, zesty and nice body, silky. Very good with Tex Mex Chicken Pilaf
