If there are "hoties" in
the Northwest wine industry right now, DiStefano Winery has to be among
them.
Di Stefano, a small Washington State winery, makes
some of the best value red and white wines in the Northwest. As
a producer of classic Bordeaux reds, the small Woodinville, WA winery
is generating high scores and gaining lots of attention for its Cabernet
Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Syrah. The winery also produces
small lots of Sauvignon Blanc.
Their Sauvignon Blanc, in their beautiful
large shouldered bottles with their trademark Renaissance portrait
label, is a crisp, balanced, delcious
white, intense enough for fairly strongly flavored dishes, or well paired
with cheese and crackers. Their red wines, a Cab, Cab Reserve, and Bordeaux blend called Sogno,
are big, rich, earthy wines with lots of Washington State's characteristic
big fruit, leather, coffee and chocollate notes, and deep dense tannins,
well integrated but best after 3-5 years of cellaring. About the Winery
