Malvasia Bianca – 2009; Llano Estacado Winery; Lubbock, Texas

This white wine is an excellent dessert wine to serve after a good hearty meal or sweet wine to serve with spicy dishes.  The grapes were sourced from New Mexico.   It has some wonderful honey suckle and citrus aromas to kick start your tasting experience.  There’s just enough sweetness in the wine to help give it that nice dessert feeling, yet not so much as to overpower the natural grape flavors.  It tastes as if it has higher alcohol content as well.   Too bad it’s only in a 500ml bottle, but sometimes good stuff comes in smaller packages, so don’t let that discourage you from picking up any of these bottles!
