White · Light · Dry
Citrus, cut grass, and a wire of acid. Marlborough makes it loudest; Sancerre makes it most refined. Either way, it cuts cleanly through goat cheese, herbs, and anything with shellfish.

White · Medium · Dry
A medium-bodied dry white in the European tradition — crisp acid, citrus and orchard fruit, a clean mineral finish. Pairs reliably with most lighter dishes.
