Would have to say Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. Love that with sea food.

How accurate is the labeling on alcohol content? Cornerstone 13.9? more like 14.9! Yountville, CA in the summer can get really hot. Super ripe Sauv Blanc!

QOTD: I'm guessing the Phillies. Favorite white wine is gewürztraminer.

I want to say the Yankees, however, I believe the Phillies will take it and Charlie Manuel will retire on top.

I've had the 2009 Cornerstone SB a few times, and have had a very different experience. I suspect that the temp. you drank it at distorted the balance and perception of heat.
Just Sayin. -

I ate at the Pacific Dining Car in Los Angeles recently and drank a 2007 Schloss Vallrad Kabinett Riesling that blew me away. Now I'm on a riesling kick!

Angels with the help of their rally monkey.
Rieslings for sure! In fact, I got a few recommendations from Kmurph today. :)
