Wine Recommendation

Bonny Doon Vineyard

2008 Albariño, Ca' del Solo Vineyard
(Monterey County)



Grapefruit and a subtle floral/spice note mark the intriguing aroma, and the finish is bone dry. Superbly balanced wine for food. It’s best to try it with poached white fish, or sip with cheeses on a hot patio.

The Reviewer

Dan Berger

Dan Berger has been reviewing wine for 30 years, always seeking character related to varietal type and regional identity. He has never used numbers to rank wine and doesn’t plan to start any time soon. He believes that weight and concentration aren’t the only worthy aspects of wine and is especially smitten by cool-climate and food-friendly wines that offer distinctiveness.
