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.
