Published: July 14, 2016, 4:31 a.m.

White wines often get dismissed as being less complex than reds but that's hardly the case. In this episode we review aromatic v non aromatic whites and how to navigate whites to find styles & grapes that will give you a new appreciation for these wines.

Specifically we talk about:

  • Aromatic wines -- what aromas they exhibit, regions you'll most likely find them and how they are made.\xa0
  • We talk about the merits of aromatic v non aromatic wines
  • We discuss aromatic grapes: Albari\xf1o, Riesling, Gew\xfcrztraminer, Muscat, Torront\xe9s, Viognier, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Fiano and more

A good primer on whites and their breadth and depth!\xa0
