Rebecca Murphy - Dallas Morning News
Handley, Anderson Valley, Pinot Gris 2006, $16.99

After working with ace winemakers Dick Arrowood and Jed Steele, Milla Handley started a winery in Mendocino's Anderson Valley and made the first vintage in her garage in 1982. She makes this pear-flavored pinot gris fat and sassy, fermenting most of the grapes in neutral oak to give the wine a creamy texture. Pair it with tom kai gai – Thai chicken soup in a coconut broth – and fresh ginger, and prepare to fall in love at first sip. Available at Corner Wines, Mr. G's Beverage Center and Pogo's Wine & Spirits. - Rebecca Murphy
