    20-buck bottle: An unusual Willamette white

    This Oregon blend results in an exciting sipper


    Wine: Montinore Borealis White Blend
    Available at: Assorted Table Wine Shoppe

    Price: $18.99

    On the nose: Honey, with an aroma that resembles a dessert wine
    On the palate: Good body with hints of apple and a touch of salinity
    On the plate: With notes of fall flavors, this wine would pair well with a typical fall dish, such as butternut squash soup.

    Our take: This wine from the Willamette Valley, an area known for pinot noir, is a blend of Müller-Thurgau, gewürztraminer, Riesling, and pinot gris. It is a complex wine with an abundance of crisp flavors, and an exciting pour.
