Once again, Taylor Shellfish (and my friend Jon Rowley)sponsored the Pacific Coast Oyster Wine Competition to find the best wines to accompany oysters. The best wines are crisp and God-like with fresh oysters. Here are this year's winners:
Listed alphabetically:
Acrobat 08 Pinot Gris (OR)
Anne Amie Vineyards 09 Pinot Gris (OR)
Anne Amie Vineyards Cuvee A 09 Müller-Thurgau (OR)
**Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery 08 Sauvignon Blanc (WA)
CMS White 08 (WA)
*Columbia Winery 08 Pinot Gris (WA)
Franciscan Estates 08 Sauvignon Blanc (CA)
Heitz Wine Cellars 09 Sauvignon Blanc (CA)
*King Estate Winery 08 Pinot Gris (OR)
**Kunde Family Estate 09 Sauvignon Blanc (CA)
* Prior Oyster Award Winner ** Multiple prior Oyster Awards
I'm sure these are all great, or you can always drink whisky with oysters for my personal favorite food/drink pairing...
