Wine Wednesday: Wimberley Valley Winery White Reserve


 So one of the things I find interesting about this winery is the fact that they use ONLY stainless steel tanks--no oak whatsoever. Now, I'm usually a big fan of oak, but I have to admit that I find these wines intriguing. And while I still like my big, buttery Chardonnays, the crispness here is also nice. 

This is a light bodied wine. It was served very cold, so there was no nose to speak of. The tasting notes on the website talks about lime zest and green apple, I didn't get either of those. I got grapefruit and a bit of salinity. Basically, this wine is reminiscent of a Paloma. 

I paired this with butternut squash ravioli, which I think worked well.
