Another typical Long Dog Chardonnay with a good balance of fruit, minerals and acidity. Citrus notes, hints of pear and melon and a touch of vanilla, it is definitely more Burgundian than New World in style. Goes beautifully with lobster and rich seafood dishes, but is still a quaffable wine on its own. Drink within the next 18 months. |  2007 Francesca Pinot Gris $22.00
Fresh and crisp, this Alsatian style Pinot Gris is an excellent aperitif wine, but also works well with food, notably asparagus, milder fish and barbecues. The acidity is tempered well by fruit overtones including grapefruit and green apple. Drink within 12-18 months.
