      Sauvignon Blanc:

      Comes mostly from California, France, New Zealand, and South Africa. Its highly acidic wines are often suggestive of herbs or grass. Light to medium bodied and usually dry, European versions are generally not oaky while California Sauvignon Blanc can take on many of the qualities of Chardonnay. France has two classic wine regions for the Sauvignon Blanc gape: Bordeaux and the Loire Valley The Bordeaux wine is called Bordeaux Blanc and the two best known of the Loire wines are called Sancerre or Pouilly-Fumé. In Bordeaux, Sauvignon Blanc is sometimes blended with Sémillon.

      Mosel-Saar-Ruwer:

      (MOH zel zar ROO ver)—This dramatically beautiful region of western Germany produces exceptional white wines from the Riesling grape. Among the lightest in Germany, these wines usually contain less than 10% alcohol and they are generally delicate, fresh, and bursting with flavor. With its flowery tastes and aromas, Mosel Riesling is a great wine to drink in the spring. Look for the words “Erzeugerabfüllung” or Gutsabfüllung,” which indicate that the wine was estate bottled and not mass-produced.


      Riesling:

      (REESE ling)—a grape that comes mostly from the Mosel and Rheingau regions of Germany (where it is a noble variety), the Finger Lakes region of New York, and Alsace region of France, and Austria. Although often thought of as “sweet,” many Rieslings are quite dry. The word trocken on German bottles indicates dryness. The trademarks of Riesling are high acidity, low to medium alcohol levels, and aromas and flavors that range from fruity and flowery to mineral. Also called Johannesburg Riesling or White Riesling.

      Beaujolais:

      (boh jhoe lay)—Although this region is technically part of Burgundy, it makes its own distinctly fruity wine from the Gamay grape. Beaujolais and Beaujolais Superieur come from the Southern part of the area where the soil is mainly clay and sand. These wines are fresh, fruity, and light-bodied, inexpensive and best drunk a year or two after the vintage. Beaujolais-Village wines are made in the northern part of the district, where the soil is granite-based, and are fuller and more substantial. The highest quality Beaujolais come from the north and are known as cru Beaujolais; these bottles carry only the name of the cru, and not the word Beaujolais.


      Gamay:

      Although this grape is fairly tannic, it makes grapey wines with low tannin, especially in the Beaujolais district of France.
