In this Gustave Eiffel-inspired sunroom guests can take in sweeping vineyard views and enjoy a signature ‘Asian bites with bubbles’ pairing. This limited-edition bubbly is an ode to the winery’s prized addition. Made in a bracingly-dry style (called Ultra Brut), it’s crisp, crave-worthy, and classy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ponzivineyards.com/Shop/Pinot-Blanc\">2017 Ponzi Vineyards Pinot Blanc, Chehalem Mountains, Willamette Valley, Oregon $22\u003c/a>\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\nWhen talking about iconic American wine families, the Ponzi family is on my short list. As pioneers of the Oregon wine industry, they have established themselves as leaders in quality and innovation. Though their roster ranges from Chardonnay to Pinot Noir, this wine is a personal favorite of mine. The white grape variety, Pinot Blanc, is known in the Alsace region of France where it gains a nutty richness. But, the Ponzi Pinot Blanc is dripping with succulent fruit notes layered with a ping of alluring minerality. A wine to stock up on for spring and summer sipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://loveblockwine.com/our-wines/sauvignon-blanc/\">\u003cb>2017 Loveblock Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand $20\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nWhen Kim and Erica Crawford sold their eponymous brand more than a decade ago, they followed their values to create a new wine brand highlighting the best of New Zealand. That’s when the Loveblock Farm captured their hearts. Sure, they still craft Sauvignon Blanc – the variety that made Kim famous – but the Loveblock expression is full-bodied and full of flavor. Forget the green, grassy Savvie of well-known producers, this elegant white is fermented with natural yeasts and a portion aged in neutral oak barrels to add complexity and texture.

A medium-full bodied red from Sangiovese that teases with dark berry fruit aromas peppered with earthy notes, it’s supple on the palate, finishing with brightness and balanced tannins.

As pioneers of the Oregon wine industry, they have established themselves as leaders in quality and innovation. Though their roster ranges from Chardonnay to Pinot Noir, this wine is a personal favorite of mine. The white grape variety, Pinot Blanc, is known in the Alsace region of France where it gains a nutty richness. But, the Ponzi Pinot Blanc is dripping with succulent fruit notes layered with a ping of alluring minerality. A wine to stock up on for spring and summer sipping.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://loveblockwine.com/our-wines/sauvignon-blanc/\">\u003cb>2017 Loveblock Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand $20\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\nWhen Kim and Erica Crawford sold their eponymous brand more than a decade ago, they followed their values to create a new wine brand highlighting the best of New Zealand. That’s when the Loveblock Farm captured their hearts. Sure, they still craft Sauvignon Blanc – the variety that made Kim famous – but the Loveblock expression is full-bodied and full of flavor. Forget the green, grassy Savvie of well-known producers, this elegant white is fermented with natural yeasts and a portion aged in neutral oak barrels to add complexity and texture.

I find I’m a much happier person with bubbles in hand. This Chardonnay-based sparkling is elegant and full of finesse. Citrus-scented with underlying aromas of freshly-baked bread, the stylish Champagne is supported by a ping of palate-pleasing minerality. It’s a wine to drink now or will benefit from a few years of aging.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you haven’t heard of this Champagne producer, it’s one to seek out when splurging on sparkling.

(It was actually started by a winemaker named Kim and his wife Erica Crawford, though no longer owned by them.) This bottling, however, is more powerful than its familiar Kim Crawford brethren. It takes Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc to the next level. Intensely fruit-driven with layers of tangy lemon/lime freshness, it also sports full-bodied flair and a mouthwatering finish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Serve with shellfish and salads, of course, but don’t forget it has enough stuffing to take on roast chicken with mustard sauce or even grilled pork chops with mango salsa. Highly recommended with a serious “wow” factor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://store.earlymountain.com/product/17-Foothills\">2016 Early Mountain Foothills, Virginia $27\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI have been impressed by the quality of the wines coming from Virginia for the past few years. After visiting the region to explore its history and plethora of stunning properties, I believe Virginia ranks among the best places in the country to taste wine. And it’s not just me. The Early Mountain winery—located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains—was even voted the best winery tasting room nationwide in 2016, according to a USA Today Reader’s Choice poll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This supple blend of mostly Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and a smattering of other grapes, is succulently juicy with dark berry notes. It’s easy to indulge in with all that forward fruit, but the red blend is supported by bright acidity and a lush mouthfeel. A wine to unscrew and enjoy while unwinding after a long day’s work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.suntory.co.jp/wnb/rokugin/en/\">Roku Japanese Craft Gin, Japan $40\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI’m going out on a limb here, but this is my favorite gin. Period. I buy multiple bottles of it at a time because I drink it so quickly…it’s just that delicious. Hailing from Japan (watch out Japanese whiskey!), it is the most subtle yet flavorful smooth gin I’ve ever sipped. With botanicals of sencha green tea, Yuzu peel, Sakura flower and more, the aromas and flavors are delicate and unique.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pour a taste by itself to get a sense of the gin’s dry finish and silky texture.

Palmer & Co has more than 415 hectares of sustainably-grown vineyards with nearly half of those classified as Grands and Premiers Cru from the Montagne de Reims area of Champagne, France. A true classic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kimcrawfordwines.com/us/products/signature-reserve-sauvignon-blanc/\">2017 Kim Crawford ‘Signature Reserve’ Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough, New Zealand $25\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nPopular with Sauv-Savvie Americans, Kim Crawford is a recognized and much-loved brand. (It was actually started by a winemaker named Kim and his wife Erica Crawford, though no longer owned by them.) This bottling, however, is more powerful than its familiar Kim Crawford brethren. It takes Kiwi Sauvignon Blanc to the next level. Intensely fruit-driven with layers of tangy lemon/lime freshness, it also sports full-bodied flair and a mouthwatering finish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Serve with shellfish and salads, of course, but don’t forget it has enough stuffing to take on roast chicken with mustard sauce or even grilled pork chops with mango salsa. Highly recommended with a serious “wow” factor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://store.earlymountain.com/product/17-Foothills\">2016 Early Mountain Foothills, Virginia $27\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI have been impressed by the quality of the wines coming from Virginia for the past few years. After visiting the region to explore its history and plethora of stunning properties, I believe Virginia ranks among the best places in the country to taste wine. And it’s not just me. The Early Mountain winery—located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains—was even voted the best winery tasting room nationwide in 2016, according to a USA Today Reader’s Choice poll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This supple blend of mostly Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah and a smattering of other grapes, is succulently juicy with dark berry notes. It’s easy to indulge in with all that forward fruit, but the red blend is supported by bright acidity and a lush mouthfeel. A wine to unscrew and enjoy while unwinding after a long day’s work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"https://www.suntory.co.jp/wnb/rokugin/en/\">Roku Japanese Craft Gin, Japan $40\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI’m going out on a limb here, but this is my favorite gin. Period. I buy multiple bottles of it at a time because I drink it so quickly…it’s just that delicious. Hailing from Japan (watch out Japanese whiskey!), it is the most subtle yet flavorful smooth gin I’ve ever sipped. With botanicals of sencha green tea, Yuzu peel, Sakura flower and more, the aromas and flavors are delicate and unique.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pour a taste by itself to get a sense of the gin’s dry finish and silky texture.
