Love the aromatic whites like Gewurtzraminer, Viognier, and Torrontes. I would love to see reviews of the best from some of the often overlooked or unknown wine regions like Virginia & Texas. I was in India a few years ago and had some wine from their emerging industry. I never knew they produced and some of them we surprisingly good.

The last wine is from the Applegate valley far from the Willamette valley, near the California border. A great place for wine tourists.

Love that you featured the dry Tokaji!! We go there several times a year and it's a fantastic region.

We all move in cycles. I prefer reds in most situations, but the wine story is not complete without whites, and rose. Finding that perfect white with low acidity, real body and a comfortable dryness isn't as easy as it sounds--at least not on my budget. Tonight, I'm drinking Ca'Momi Rosso, a tasty red blend from Napa at the low end of the price scale. Maddy, you continue to be an outstanding wine educator and a great, suave person.

these videos are gold! appreciate them heaps, keep it up thankyou!!

I named my cat Gewürztraminer.

A couple more possibilities: Virtually any Riesling from Ernst Loosen (Mosel) Gewurztraminer from Navarro Vineyards (Mendocino) Pinot Grigio/Gris from Alois Lageder (Alto Adige, Northern Italy). Cheers!!

I sat down to watch this with a glass of 2018 Meulenhof Riesling feinherb _(slightly off dry)_ from a 1 L bottle for under 7 € directly from the vintner and just had to write this to make you envious.

funny about your comment about changing pallet. Its the one major mistake I made with my cellar. I have a crapload of wines Im not drinking anymore. I just hope my pallet comes back around on them before they are past maturity. I was on a big CDP kick 7-8 years ago and now have waaaaay too many.

Loved this format. More please 😁

Thanks for covering white wines and hope you will continue. I have yet to try Semillion or Vionier, but intend to do so. I'm now exploring Vouvray's from the Loire Valley after trying some in a restaurant and thoroughly enjoying this white. Would love to see you feature this wine in a future episode. One thing, in the comment section below it would be nice to list the wines, makers and price of each wine you talk about.

Great suggestions, I love this kind of video

I feel redemption! The Master went through the stages (that I'm going through), from hard, bold, red wines...to the rainbow of tastes that other varieties offer. So, I'm still faithful to my Australian shiraz (please make a video of these), but I'm free to explore. Salud!

What an interesting video! I think wines from Alsace often offer great value. If you like Italian Pinot Grigio, you should try a Pinot Gris from Alsace. BTW, love your shirt!

Huzzah Semillion and Viognier! I love those varietals and hope they catch on more.

Vouvray, Picpoul, Alvarinho and Southern Rhone white blends are all well worth trying as well.

Madeline, you're so good. Thanks!

very cool choices!! oregon pinot gris might be my fav american white, will definitely have to try their viognier. also love semillon-forward bordeaux blancs so will have to try the australian semillon as well. and ofc i love royal tokaji, will have to try their dry wine one day!! my favorite white wines that i've tried recently were a chenin blanc from south africa (terre brulee) and a catarratto from sicily (abisso)

I've tasted that Oddity about two months ago, and I've liked it very much as well. Happy to see that others did too ;) It's about half the price over here (~9$) than in the US, so it's an absolute steal for us across the pond. Cheers from Hungary, keep up the good work!

We had a lobster feast the other night with a triple French treat: A Picoul de Pinet, a Cote de Gascogne blend of Gros Manseng/Sauv Blanc/Colombard, and a Muscadet Sevre-et-Maine. All were delicious accompaniments in their own rights... once you finally get past Chardonnay there are so many interesting white varietals to try!

I am enjoying a Apelia Moschofilero Roditis from Greece. It is my first Greek wine. It is quite lovely in my uneducated opinion. I like crisp light whites. I have been exploring white more. I got this white for a Greek lamb recipe called Lamb Kleftiko.

I’d love to see you compare some dry roses and how to choose one- I feel like they’ve gotten so popular and there’s a lot of bad tasting ones out there on the market. I’d also like to hear more about natural/organic/biodynamic wines

Looking forward to see some rare South America wine video, especially wine from Brazil or some other countries that we might never heard of that make wines

It's great to see Furmint in the tasting. And at the same time I'd like to add that Tokai region spreads over the border of Hungary into Slovakia. At some point I may cause Slovakian wines to increase the price once they will be more discovered beyond the borders. Particularly white and rose. I'd love you to take some sample, not only from Tokai region of Slovakia, but any other part as they are a real gem.

Finally some love for Viognier. Such an underrated varietal

I love a good acidity and minerality in my whites, a little upset you didn't include Italian wines! A few of my favourites: Greco di tufo Italian blends containing Malvasia especially from center italy Blanc de morgex et de la salle (valle d'Aosta) Verdelho-spain- mostly as orange, and verdicchio - italy-if properly aged (same grape different names) Catarratto (Sicily) Caprettone (Campania) Aaaand not Italian: Riesling (Mosel) I didn't want to appear to patriotic so I limited my list to these few, but Italy is full of amazing whites...

I’ll say it again- you’re awesome. On the “other white” topic, I too am enjoying wines from the Alsace- love the lean minerality. Similarly Muscadet de Sevre et Maine from the Loire. As you say “bracing”! Tonight, a little Bandol Rose from the Bieber family, mostly Mourvèdre and Cinsault, then red- some Grenache from 80 year old vines in Catalonia. All good. Keep going M.

Another great video. Love those wines. So true about one's palate progression and maturity......... PS: I think your sound might be better if you used a lapel mic

We love your videos and wondered if you could do a review on cellarmasters Cooper and Thief red wine? Thank you very much

Have to try some Australian Fiano, plantings are popping up everywhere atm. Unico Zelo is one of my favorite producers.

Massive white fan here, interested to watch this.

I would love a video with your picks for quality Chenin Blanc regions and styles. What else should I try if I love Vouvray? Keep up the great work!

Where did you get that nose? Your descriptions of fragrants is spectacular, my brain's scent center lights up as does the taste cortex with your account of flavors! I guess you go to my head...LOL. Gotta have a lot of friends with all those open bottles. Cheers!

This is common from what I have heard from other wine drinkers. I went from a medium red and full bodied red to a sweet Riesling made by chateau ste michelle (harvest select). Its close to a flat cherry 7up.

I totally agree. My tastes have changed

Love your work. For those of you who enjoy NZ Sauvignon Blancs you should check out English Bacchus which is very similar but a little more floral with an elderflower edge. Also a shout out for Sylvaner (particularly from Franken in Germany), Muscat (they make amazing dry versions in Alsace) and Petit Manseng (found in South West France and soon likely to be a Bordeaux variety)

Would like to see a video with some Okanagan wine. We do some really great whites, particularly in the Naramata region.

Awesome! 😁

That’s a great t shirt for Japan. My home.

The Okanogan valley in BC Canada has been my all time favorite region. I only wish it was easier to get the wine in the USA.

I think Soave is a little hidden gem of a white wine.

Alsace is my favorite area in the world. Superb. I am leery of semillon. Gewurtztraminer is my favorite. Northern Italy. Sanct. Valentin. Is wonderful.

Wish the wines were listed so I can order to taste them.

Drink some Portuguese wines please. Can’t wait 😊!!

can you tell what are the best taste wine like orange more sweetness.

Cool Climate Chardonnay (outside Burgundy) I think is a cool idea

I’m drinking an Alsatian Crémant Rosé and later a 2012 Reserve Syrah from Grand Valley, Colorado! If I could recommend Colorado wine for you to try: Cab Franc from either Red Fox Cellars, Colterris or Infinite Monkey Theorem. Cheers!

I had to watch this as the title of the video infers that there are not many whites worth drinking. I like Maddy like my reds big and bold and have no problems finding wines catering to my taste in Australia. My tastes are changing however over time and a couple of Aussie whites which I think are truly bonza are; ‘Tahbilk’ Marsanne (VIC) or a Polish Hill Riesling (SA - ‘Grosset’ if the budget allows) PS : don’t tell my mates I have started drinking whites or I will never hear the end of it 😁

I wonder if you could do a video on the coravin and how good it is and if its worth the money.

Thank you for posting this video because I had never been a fan of Whites except an occasional Riesling like Zen Garden. I'm just starting to enjoy Sauvignon Blanc wines recently and I actually really like the Clifford Bay Sauvignon Blanc it has a passion fruit flavor but I'm noticing that the only ones I care for are the ones from South Africa, Australia and New Zealand

You definitely forgot a german Riesling from the mosel valley with some residual sugar...like a kabinett or spätlese. These wines are low in alcohol (7%-10%vol.) and can age for decades.

Check out some wines from the Northeastern U.S.A. Especially some of the Traminettes, Gewurztraminers and Rieslings.

Great and informative video as always! Right now I am drinking a Sauvignon Blanc from Marlborough, NZ. It's called Villa Maria, and it is a relatively cheap wine, bit it is one of my favorites. Perfect with seafood salads and soft cheeses.

Have you tried wines from India? Sula in particular?

I'd like to see more sommelier review of Georgian wines or even Armenian. It was nice to see the hungarian wine there. Theres a bottle at my local store I've been keeping an eye on. It's quite expensive so I've been holding out lol I have a quick unrelated question. I'll keep it short as possible. I had to transport wine with out air conditioning in the heat. I grabbed ice and cooler and transported that way. The wine got super cold much colder than I thought. I've took it out and place in my semi cool cellar. But the last two bottles I opened from that trip developed that vinegar taste. Ruined them. One was corked and looked like it may have had air seep in from poor cork. But the other was capped. Could the way I transported these contributed to this. I'm praying not as I had some very expensive burgundy In that transport.

Hey, Madeline! I was wondering if you could compare Left and Right Bank Bordeaux wines! What should I expect in regards to differences?

A comparison between French and Argentinian Malbec would be nice!!!!

Love Hunter Valley semillon, though you may want to give that Tyrrell's another 10 years :) p.s. Tyrrell's rhymes with squirrels

Great review. Had a chuckle at your pronunciation of Tyrrels. Try it with an Aussie accent. It’s more like “Tirrels” as in “squirrels”. Gotta keep that mouth closed to keep the flies out. Thanks Madeline

When you say "oily" does that point to malolactic fermentation?

Let’s have some sherry!

What would you say are the main aromas of white wines? Kind of like you did for the red wine aroma kit? Thanks!

Grillo!

please try some godello

🍇🍷🍺 Oregon definitely has some awesome Pinot Noir, Chardonnaywines.. That actually Beat the French.Wines .. Interesting selection of obscure wines! 🍷 Have a Great Week ! 🍷. 🍇🍷 Cheers 🍻🍷🍷

Love Viognier! Try some from Virginia.

Can you taste some Texas wines?

Make a review from mexican wines 😁

You forgot gruner veltiner.

White wine tasting without a german wine!?

Gotta say, why not name the appellation that the Viognier comes from?! It's the Applegate Valley, subset of the Rogue Valley, also in your new book! I lived there for many years, know the great people from Schmidt, I just wanted to hear you mention it..... Oh! Maybe a tasting of southern Oregon wines?! #drinkOregonwine #RogueValleyWines #southernOregonWine

You are so cool

Uhm.. Just a small innocent side note: those bottles don't look like they were properly chilled (it's white wines we're talking about after all..) :D

really enjoy watching your wine videos... they strike a perfect balance between solid viticultural education and just the right amount of irreverent humor... here's to the ghetto hot cellar! ;)

Sorry, but you need to talk more about which wineries you are drawing from, I can barely see the labels. The appellation is the most important but the labels are important too. Also, some Rose taskings would be great. Thanks

Not a fan of gewursrtramminer as it is too sweet .I prefer Chilean white for value and taste

right now im drinking a Black currant based mead that i made :)

Pls wine from Ica's valley, Peru 😀

"Vinyay"? Is that how Viognier should be pronounced? I thought it was more like Vee-on-yaer.

White Hermitage. $$$$$$

Sauvignon Blanc. It does what a well made white wine should do........savagely attacks your taste buds! Bring on that plate of grilled lemon pepper chicken!

A 2014 Pinot Blanc? No thank you.

The last wine I drank had notes of mountain grown cucumber that was pollinated by left toed weasle moths, with a slippery yet stablely balanced roll off the tongue, diffusing a tart nuttiness only available from sunken and sun stroked vines from the nether most region of the hollanberry range in the eastern half section of Sutton estates. Yeah, not really I just made that shit up.

It’s pronounced Tirrels, and you are really drinking a 2017 vintage at least a decade too early!

Respectfully - it is pronounced as Vee-oh-nyay. If one is going to teach people about a grape, pronouncing it correctly would be a good place to start.

👊💦

Awful title. Is this what the new partnership is adding to WF? Are you implying to novices that white Burgundy/Chablis, Bordeaux Blanc, Loire, Condrieu, CA Chardonnay, Encruzado from Portugal, Rioja Blanca, etc., etc., etc. are NOT “worth drinking?” Because if you are not, then don’t give future WF videos such silly titles.

How can people watch this nonsense? It always makes me cringe when I hear Sommelier's with their over dramatic descriptions, and largely imaginative made up theater. Who cares how the wine splosh's around in the fancy glass. These are just people giving their fancy opinion of what they have decided they like by trying too hard to make a big deal about drinking juice. Just drink what you like and quit inventing things that you aren't really tasting just to sound sophisticated.

You need to stop talking with your hands. Very annoying.
