One of the Vintner Select All-Stars, Brian, dropped in to do a pre-taste tasting with 2 very cool wines:

Deligeroy Rosé Brut Cremant de Loire NV. Grade=Outstanding.  This gorgeous sparkler made with Cab Franc is bright and lively, with rosewater, strawberry, red raspberry and slight nuances of marzipan.  Finishes dry and refreshing.

Kung Fu Girl Riesling Washington State 2010.  Grade=Outstanding.  A right-sexy Riesling, with just a touch of sweetness, this light-to-medium-bodied white is well-structured with juicy apple, Rainer cherries, key lime and slight white peach notes, mixing it up with bright mineral and glimmers of ginger.
