Donatien Bahuaud Les Grands Mortiers Vouvray 2013, Loire A.C., France: This lovely Loire Valley Chenin Blanc offers floral notes. It's and festive with attractive aromas of white peach. A terrific aperitif or companion to vegetarian dishes. This A.C. Vouvray also features lemon zest, mango and some lovely, luxurious candle wax notes (the latter, more texture than flavour).

Kim Crawford Unoaked Chardonnay 2013, Marlborough, Hawke's Bay, East Coast, New Zealand: Fresh and crisp with no oak. Citrus character from Hawke's Bay combines with tropical fruit from Marlborough. Malolactic fermentation with 7 months on the lees to impart richness and creaminess: gives the impression of oak without the heaviness. Butterscotch notes but still ultra-fresh fruit.  Refute the notion of ABC (Anything But Chardonnay), a movement started against Chardonnay for being too heavy: this wine will convince you otherwise. Try it with fresh seafood. Drink: 2014-2017. 991950 14% XD 750 mL  $18.95 Score: 91/100. August 15, 2014 Best Value White Wine. Scrumptious Seafood Wine Full Review
