Jon Morgan and the Bargetto boys have done it again. This time the must-have wine from Soquel Vineyards is a charismatic blend called Trinity Bianco. First off know that the wine is one of the many many bargains available right this minute at Shoppers Corner. In fact the 2012 Trinity Bianco is priced to move from here to kingdom come at a low, low $11.99.  (I really missed my calling.)

But here’s the most important intel about this really lovely and highly versatile white.

It weighs in at a very accessible 13.8 % alcohol. Just about perfect in my book. The charm comes from an inspired blend of 76% chardonnay, 20% sauvignon blanc and 4% Gewurztraminer, for those floral topnotes. What it offers is a lovely tart nose that begins with a soft focus of violets and grapefruit and then unfolds into lime peel, geranium, and minerals followed by a soft wave of unctuous depths. Long legs and a light golden hue, this is a beauty just waiting to go with Dungeness crab, paella, ham, even alio e olio pastas.

We like it with kalamata olives and a few marcona almonds. Get a case while it lasts!
