The big brother...

1st recommendation tonight was Auratus, Alvarinho... I can't remember specifically, but know that I've had it & I enjoyed it ... so Marc suggested this. This is the "Big Brother"

It definitely has a sweetness to it, but overall, I wouldn't call it a sweet wine. Driving here tonight, I thought I wanted a burger... Once I took a couple of sips, I knew that I wanted the trout. Perfect pairing. The sweetness of the golden raisins with the buttery hollandaise made for a nice accompaniment.

About $19 @ 3rdCorner- Dorado, Alvarinho 2010
