This lovely Verdelho is perfumed with jasmine and apricot. It’s crisp and creamy while also tasting refreshing and light. The finish is all lime salt and minerality. Pour it at an outdoor soirée or sip it while cooking dinner.

Terra d'Alter 2011 Verdelho (Alentejano)
- Online Exclusive
- $17
Lightly spicy aromas give this an exotic feel. At the same time, there is plenty of crisp, citrusy acidity, along with a rounded melon texture. The wine is full-bodied, concentrated and will be ready to drink in six months.

Full and ripe, this balances round pear and peach flavors with intense acidity. It is a beautifully fruity wine, one that also has a sense of structure and a fine, elegant texture.

Hope Estate 1998 Verdelho (Hunter Valley)
- Best Buy
- $9
This pleasant, medium-weight white from an Iberian grape shows why it has caught on among our adventurous Aussie cousins. The nose of tangerine, hay, and a mild stony note opens to a mouth full of melon, citrus and herb flavors. It sports a tangy citrus finish.

Quinta da Sonora 2000 Verdelho
- Best Buy
- $12
From 100% Lodi grapes, a fresh, fruity, lively wine with tropical fruit and spice aromas. The flavors are very rich and ripe, suggesting pineapple, guava, cinnamon and nutmeg. Despite the intense fruitiness, it’s dry and balanced.

Wandin Valley 2002 Verdelho (Hunter Valley)
- $13
Pear and resin aromas are light. This wine’s palate entry is really neat: you slide effortlessly into green-apple flavors and a nice, viscous texture, which clings through the dusty finish. Nice, unusual and hey, what a bargain.

Windshaker Ridge 2003 Verdelho
- $13
This very likable Verdelho offers straw and hay aromas, plus a little Band-aid, on the nose. The mouthfeel is smooth and dry, with flavors of yellow peach flesh and lavender. The longer it sits, the more toasty it seems to get, so adjust your drinking speed accordingly. Imported by Windshaker Ridge Imports.
