Ep 163: Getting to Know White Wines
Wine for Normal People - A podcast by Elizabeth Schneider
Categories:
White wines often get dismissed as being less complex than reds but that's hardly the case. In this episode we review aromatic v non aromatic whites and how to navigate whites to find styles & grapes that will give you a new appreciation for these wines.
Specifically we talk about:
- Aromatic wines -- what aromas they exhibit, regions you'll most likely find them and how they are made.
- We talk about the merits of aromatic v non aromatic wines
- We discuss aromatic grapes: Albariño, Riesling, Gewürztraminer, Muscat, Torrontés, Viognier, Chenin Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Fiano and more
A good primer on whites and their breadth and depth!
