Glaciers End White from Martha Clara Vineyards. It's a blue bottle with a white polar bear on it. It's about 10 dollars a bottle and very tasty! Chat Icon

I tend to like sweeter wines, like Rieslings, but for a nice, light white you might like Pindar Winter White or Autumn Gold. I also love Chateau Ste. Michele Riesling.

Love white burgundys like this. Poulliy Fuisee or Puilly Fume is about $20 a bottle. Perfect combo of refreshing and dryness without the buttery oakness of Chardonnay.

Is that in your price range?

I think some of the Pinot Grigios are very tart and a little too dry.

Kris is a good one for the price.

You could try a Rodney Strong Chardonnay. Great in it's price point and full bodied.

You should definitely look at Sauvignon Blanc, white burgundies, Gruner Veltliner, Italian Gavi...

White Burgundies, Weisser Burgunder (German version of White Burgundy) and Sauvignon Blancs.

Personally I'd stay away from any Rieslings and Pindar's Winter White. I like them, but you said you don't like too sweet.

Re: I need a good WHITE WINE :)

my favorite cheap white is Ruffino Orvieto. it's about $10 a bottle.

I like Barefoot Sauv Blanc.

I live Vincent Pouilly Fuisse (about $20 a bottle)

I can enjoy most Pinot Grigio's...Ecco Domani's is decent...

there is another one I had the other day but the name escapes me. If I figure it out, I'll edit.

I also love sancerre's put they are a bit more pricey.

sometimes I'll go to the liquor store and search the bottles for reviews...focusing on "best values" etc. anything over 87 from Wine Spectator/Enthusiast/Food & Wine I will give a go.

I agree with a pp that Rieslings and Pindar's Winter White are "sweeter" white wines so if you do not like sweet wines you will not like them.

For whites I Chardonnay (generally from the Carneros region), Sauvignon Blanc, Pouilly Fusse, Sancerre.

My aunt likes Pouilly Fuisse.



Not a big white wine drinker at all - more a red girl.
When I do drink white its always this or Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio
