As many of you know one of our sponsors here at Wine Making Talk is the Hid-In-Pines Vineyard owned and operated by none other than one of our esteemed admins Richard Lamoy. I had the distinct pleasure of opening a bottle last night of his St. Pepin White Wine with dinner. I had heard of St. Pepin before via Rich and this website and was excited to see what this wine had to offer. I must say that it did not disappoint!
When opened the wine has an immediate bouquet much like that of a Riesling with notes of Apple and Pear. What I was not expecting was the wonderful melody of flavors when the wine hit my mouth! Suddenly it was like a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc in the glass with an explosion of citrus and lemongrass.
We had this wine paired with a spicy asian dish. The crispness along with the just perfect amount of residual sweetness in the wine went together in a perfect harmony throughout the entire meal.
This wine will pair very well with cheeses, seafood, chicken dishes and will make a fantastic wine to sip on all by itself on a warm Summer evening out on the back patio as the sun goes down and the stars come out.
Congrats Rich you knocked this one out of the park! I cant wait to try your Marquette next!
Cheers!
