Recommended summer white for seafood... Washington’s Chateau Ste Michelle makes more Riesling than anyone else in the world - close to a million cases a year. Most of that is off-dry (lightly sweet), but I prefer the winery’s crisp, peachy, dry bottling. It’s a great crab wine - cracked crab, crab rolls, crab salad, crab-on-a-stick, you name it. - Ray Isle.

It's dry, with tongue-tickling acidity, and ripe apple aromas make it work with everything from sautéed flounder to a backyard bleu-cheese burger.

There is simply no connection between the (ludicrously low) price and the quality. Made by superb wine maker Wendy Stuckey, a former Australian riesling specialist, this wine was made in a pretty large amount (40,000 cases). Yet its dramatic lime/citrus, and tropical fruit aroma is a perfect reflection of the varietal. The Washington-based winery also makes literally hundreds of thousands of cases of a similarly priced “regular” riesling that is superb, and often discounted to about $7(!). But that wine is a bit sweeter than is this food-friendly dry version. I have tasted wines that sell for three times this price that aren’t as good, or as reliable. And earlier vintages of this may well be better than they were; this wine ages handsomely. Could this be America’s greatest wine value?
