And not just because they are from Idaho. And remember, wines are meant to be sampled with food. Robin and I just had a Basil and Herb Chicken (actually from Albertsons and pretty good) with Fresh Orange-Mojo Dipping Sauce for Take-Out Chicken and a Golden Rice Salad. Hopefully, Robin will post the recipes for these.

Actually, this is the wrong label, but the design is the same.

2008 Parma Ridge Vineyards, Snake River Valley Dry Gewurztraminer.

A light, German Style Gewurztraminer. “… Try this Gewurztraminer with pork roast, sauerbraten, turkey and other flavorful dishes.” This went extremely well with our herbal chicken and rice. On the back of the tongue, a hint of citrus fruit, like light orange. This is a wine that will leave you saying, “What was that?”. You can find more about Parma Ridge Vineyards by Clicking Here. At this writing, there are only 50 cases in stock. Order some now – you will not regret it! It’ll be great at Thanksgiving.

The other wine, and this is not the correct label either – it should be a Syringa bush label – is:

2008 Indian Creek Winery, Mountain Syringa.

An awesome wine that is definitely fruit forward – Pear, Citrus. “…Tasty alone or with turkey, many highly spiced fish and meat dishes, breads and cheeses.” A blend of Gewurztraminer (50%), White Riesling (22%) and Chardonnay (22%). Mike and Tammy have done an outstanding job. At last check, there were 5 cases of this left. You can view their Web Site and get more information. Be one of five people and buy a case!!

Both of these wines are outstanding, but for different reasons. You really need some of these in your cellar! Cheers!
