Our 2017 list of top 10 wines for fall (or early spring if you're in the southern hemisphere!)! The smell of falling leaves is here & it's time for a change from crisp, refreshing sippers to something heavier, earthier, and better with warm, hearty food.
Here's the list:
1. Malbec from Cahors (France)
2. Cabernet Franc from: Long Island, New York (US) Virginia (US) Chinon or Bourgueil from Loire Valley (France)
3. Red Bordeaux (France)
4. Fiano di Avellino, a white from Campania (Italy)
5. Aglianico, a red from Campania (Italy) especially Taurusi
6. Nebbiolo-based wines from Piedmont (Italy) especially Barolo, Barbaresco, Langhe
7. Sangiovese-based wines from Tuscany, Umbria or other parts of Italy especially Chianti, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Brunello or Rosso di Montalcino
8. Côtes-du-Rhône Blanc or the WHITE grapes that go into it: Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Roussanne, and Marsanne from Paso Robles, California (US)
9. Syrah from the northern Rhône or from Paso Robles, California
10. Rioja (Spain) -- Tempranillo only for M.C. Ice, the traditional Rioja blend for Elizabeth
