The recent fiscal news has been so unnerving, it could very well drive to a person to drink. Provided, of course, that the drinks were sufficiently cheap. A wine I tasted the other night — the 2010 Domaine Tariquet Classic — could do the trick.
It was unquestionably well priced ($8), and it was remarkably refreshing – even quite energizing. The Tariquet is a blend of two undistinguished grapes, Ugni Blanc and Colombard. And the sum was actually better than its parts.
Made by the Grassa family in the Gascogne region of France, it’s a bright, crisp-to-the-point-of-zingy white that’s a perfect aperitif – as well as an antidote to the Dow.
